(I think you mean "sanctuary." It's a totally different term, right?)

Why should local law enforcement be forced to be the enforcement arm of federal policy? Isn't that supposed to be the job of federal law enforcement?

What you are proposing is against state and local freedom. It's un-American. [/quote]

So all the rhetoric about migrants being welcome is just rhetoric?  The border states want actual border security. Politicians who opposed policies like stay in Mexico should have no problem housing the migrants they argued should be allowed in [/quote]

Dp- rhetoric? All it means is that local law enforcement isn’t doing the fed’s job for them. It also allows illegal immigrants to report crimes without fear. [/quote]

NP....  and you are exactly right.  Nobody in "sanctuary cities" is saying those cities will pay for room and board and everything else.  Not even the mayor of San Francisco says that.  That narrative is a fiction, a gross embellishment that's purely made-up by the right wing.  it's their rhetoric, not ours.

Sanctuary city means the city will not enforce immigration law.  And they shouldn't, either - because it's not the city's job to do it.  Immigration enforcement is strictly a matter of federal jurisdiction.

Hope that sets you straight, OP - because that is the fact, and anyone who's suggested otherwise to you is wrong.[/quote]

Someone has to house these people and feed them, whether they are saying that loud or not. You cannot deny these people basic care, it is inhumane. If cities don't want to enforce immigration laws, then it is logical that they should be in charge of housing and feeding these people and providing medical care to them. It either deports them or takes care of them. Taxes said we are enforcing immigration laws and deporting them to California. California can decide if they want to enforce immigration law and deport them, or feed them. They cannot just allow these people to remain homeless like their own citizens. [/quote]

What “Texas” immigration laws are there? Texas isn’t enforcing immigration laws because it doesn’t have any. It isn’t “deporting” people to California. Texas isn’t its own country. [/quote]
