Cincinnati Mayor: We Are Now a Sanctuary City
« on: January 31, 2017, 11:45:28 AM »
The mayor of Cincinnati has declared his municipality to be a sanctuary city, which will now protect illegal aliens from federal immigration officers.

Mayor John Cranley announced, alongside Muslim, Jewish and Christian religious leaders, that his city would “stand in solidarity with the immigrant community,” and declare itself a sanctuary city, despite the threat of losing federal funding under President Donald Trump’s administration.

Cranley said he supported Catholic Charities, which is contracted by the federal government to resettle refugees all over the country, citing that his wife’s family are immigrants from Jordan.

Now, someone can correct me if I'm wrong: Congress authorizes the payment of moneys, but it's the Executive that actually pays it, yes? So even if Congress authorizes all sorts of funds for these sanctuary cities, Trump can just not cut the check?

It boggles my mind how elected officials are bending over backwards to protect people who have no legal standing to be here while risking federal dollars that should be used to protect the legal citizens.   

This is the result of decades of government not enforcing our immigration laws which has caused many people to think illegal aliens have a right to be here.
