[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous].....despite the fact that he indicated during the campaign that he would support a ban on sanctuary cities.[/quote]

... if any were to come up in Virginia, which they haven’t. If that were to occur, then the legislature could address it in a way that was narrowly tailored to the actual problem and wasn’t overly broad or restrictive. When all they’re doing is addressing a non-existent problem in the abstract, veto is appropriate.[/quote]

Don't be obtuse.  Fairfax County is a sanctuary city.  And we have the precipitously declining schools and property values, horrible amounts of litter, and MS-13 activity to show for it.[/quote]

What specific regulations and policies has Fairfax enacted that make it a sanctuary city?[/quote]

Do you really need to pretend that a fact known for decades doesn't exist?  The incidious thing about Sanctuary Cities is that they break the law - it's not that citizens enact laws to create them, it's that they flagrantly *ignore* existing laws, which circumvents citizens.

For one, the sheriff of FFx just recently announced she won't be keeping illegal immigrants in jail for ICE to retrieve them.  You can argue technicalities all day - this is deliberate and inappropriate.[/quote]
