Summary

Los Angeles is moving to declare itself a “sanctuary city” and its school district a “sanctuary” for undocumented immigrants and LGBTQ students, directly opposing Donald Trump’s immigration policies.

The proposed city ordinance would bar using local resources to assist federal immigration enforcement, while the school district aims to protect immigrant and LGBTQ students through emergency resolutions.

Trump’s “border czar,” Tom Homan, has vowed to continue deportations despite sanctuary policies, setting the stage for a standoff between the city and the incoming administration.

    Proud to be a defiant blue state/city. Hopefully they can work out this housing and homeless problem too.
