Ending Sanctuary Cities: No Federal Funds for Non-Compliant Jurisdictions

This act aims to cut off federal funding for cities and counties that do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities. This means local governments could lose significant financial resources, potentially impacting public services for residents. Additionally, law enforcement officers who cooperate with federal immigration requests will be protected from lawsuits.
Key points
Cities and counties that violate federal immigration laws will lose access to federal grants.
The Department of Homeland Security will annually identify non-compliant jurisdictions.
Law enforcement officers complying with federal immigration detainers will be protected from legal liability.
Employers cannot discriminate against officers for cooperating with federal immigration requests.
