Attorney General Pam Bondi has mandated that the Justice Department suspend funding to jurisdictions labeled as "sanctuary cities" for their lack of compliance with federal immigration laws. Her directive follows the belief that such cities undermine legal enforcement and attract illegal immigration. Along with this, funding will also cease for organizations providing assistance to illegal aliens. The Justice Department has commenced legal action against Chicago and Illinois for their sanctuary laws, while Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker rejects the administration's claims that they obstruct federal directives.
Attorney General Pam Bondi's recent directive halts federal funding to "sanctuary cities" that refuse cooperation with immigration enforcement, claiming it undermines the rule of law.
Critics argue that sanctuary cities attract illegal immigrants and challenge federal authority, justifying Bondi's approach to immigration enforcement.
