A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration cannot deny federal funding to sanctuary jurisdictions, deeming its executive orders unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge William Orrick issued an injunction in response to a lawsuit from San Francisco and other cities that limit cooperation with federal immigration efforts. He ordered the administration to notify all federal agencies by Monday of the injunction, reinforcing that their fears of losing funding were valid based on recent federal actions. This ruling echoes previous legal challenges against similar orders during Trump's first term.
Orrick's ruling emphasizes that federal funds cannot be denied to sanctuary jurisdictions, deeming Trump's executive orders unconstitutional.
The judge stated the administration's actions caused 'well-founded fear of enforcement' against cities rejecting federal immigration policies.
