President Trump has issued a new executive order aimed at sanctuary cities, mandating the federal government to identify jurisdictions that do not comply with immigration enforcement. This order, titled Protecting American Communities from Criminal Aliens, could lead to legal actions against these cities if they maintain their sanctuary policies. Critics, including local officials like Alameda County Supervisor Nikki Fortunato Bas, argue that these moves are merely scare tactics and emphasize the constitutionality and safety benefits of such policies. Sanctuary cities, which have long been part of the U.S. landscape, often refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities and assert their commitment to protecting local communities.
President Trump has issued an executive order targeting sanctuary cities, mandating the federal government to list these jurisdictions and notify them of alleged violations.
