34,000 illegal immigrants and now they don't want to be a sanctuary city?

Let's give a big shout out to Texas Governor Gregg Abbott and (Operation Lone Star)

They had no idea in Chicago, New York City, and DC what could happen and they found out "Quickly"!

The term though isn't migrant. It is, illegal immigrants.

Huge difference.
There can actually be no such thing as a sanctuary city.

Immigration laws are federal law. Federal law supercedes state law.

Everything the Democrats have done thus far to enable the invasion of America,besides being Treason, is illegal.

I don't know about that....there are several "sanctuary cities." Los Angeles is one of them. The police cannot ask about their status. Maybe if they get arrested, then the police find out their status.

The sanctuary cities acts of local governments are a federal law violation. The way they get away with it is by refusing to assist authorities in prosecuting the federal laws.

Cute,huh?

Do Sanctuary Cities Violate the Law?

By Justin Yang
Justin Yang is a junior at the University of Pennsylvania studying Politics, Philosophy, and Economics.

The controversy over state and local governments declaring themselves to be so-called “sanctuaries” for undocumented immigrants may have been more salient months ago, but it hasn’t died down. In mid-January, Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen announced she would look for ways to file criminal charges against sanctuary cities for refusing to cooperate with federal deportation efforts. [1] There have been many other efforts by the federal government and Republicans to curb efforts by mainly Democratic states and cities to shield undocumented immigrants from federal enforcement agencies, all based on accusations of illegal and unconstitutional efforts by state and local governments to obstruct and nullify federal immigration law. However, unlike many other partisan issues these days, the law seems clear cut here: cities and states are perfectly entitled to set themselves up as sanctuaries for undocumented immigrants.

This claim may seem counterintuitive on its face—how can states and local governments pick and choose whether to enforce federal law? After all, our Constitution clearly states that federal law shall be supreme over state and local law; some have even asserted that sanctuary cities harken back to a time when states and cities would defy the federal government during the Jim Crow era. [2] In addition, there are specific federal statutes that require state and local officials to aid federal immigration authorities; Section 1373(a) of Title 8 of the U.S. Code says state and local governments can’t ban officials from sending or receiving information regarding the immigration or citizenship status of people to the Department of Homeland Security. [3] President Trump has chosen to enforce this particular statute through a withdrawal of federal grants and funds for violators, as per a January 25, 2017 executive order. [4]


Of course, this is all a total misunderstanding of what state and local governments do when they proclaim themselves to be sanctuaries. Rather than nullifying or violating federal law, what states and cities are doing is opting “not to use its resources to help federal agents identify, and deport, undocumented immigrants.” [5] These actions include a refusal to gather immigration-related data when police interact with local residents, as well as a refusal to detain undocumented people at the federal government’s request, with few exceptions. [5] Rather than a nullification or defiance of federal immigration law, these policies are about the allocation and prioritization of scarce public funds, as well as bolstering trust between residents and law enforcement. [6] These governments can put the collection of immigration data low on the list of priorities, and as long as they aren’t actively blocking information sharing with federal immigration authorities, the law is not violated. Instead, the result is that there is no information to be shared, which means there is nothing to be blocked.

Chicago residents' leases are not being renewed because the landlords get more money from housing the illegal migrants. Federal money pays more to house them.
