发帖数: 61690 | 1 Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) is pledging to ban sanctuary cities in his state
even as other governors and mayors promise to continue sheltering illegal
immigrants.
"I'm going to sign a law that bans sanctuary cities," Abbott tweeted on
Sunday.
"Also I've already issued an order cutting funding to sanctuary cities."
Abbott was responding to a Twitter user who questioned whether the Texas
governor could do anything to reverse Austin's pledge to remain a sanctuary
city.
During his presidential campaign, President-elect Donald Trump pledged to
deport millions of immigrants.
He said during an interview shortly after his victory he would prioritize
deporting or jailing any undocumented immigrants who were members of gangs
or had criminal records.
He also vowed during the campaign to block federal dollars from cities that
give sanctuary to undocumented immigrants.
Democratic governors and mayors signaled earlier this month that they will
not go along with the Trump administration's plans. |
