The Trump administration released a list of sanctuary jurisdictions in the Bay Area, which includes numerous cities and counties. However, local officials, such as Hayward's Mayor Mark Salinas, assert their policies will remain unchanged due to federal court rulings protecting these cities from losing federal funds. Mountain View also expressed its commitment to inclusivity, emphasizing that immigration enforcement is a federal issue. The federal government warns that sanctuary cities may face consequences related to federal grants if deemed noncompliant with immigration laws.
"Federal courts have ruled in favor of sanctuary cities - prohibiting the Trump administration from denying or conditioning the use of federal funds to 'sanctuary' jurisdictions - and the city of Hayward's policies will not change."
"Immigration policy and enforcement is a federal government responsibility, and the Mountain View Police Department does not ask about immigration status of any crime victims, witnesses or other individuals who contact MVPD for help."
