California becomes first 'sanctuary state' for undocumented migrants

Los Angeles (AFP) - California became the first "sanctuary state" for undocumented immigrants Friday, a decision criticized by the Trump administration which believes the move will compromise security.

California's governor, Democrat Jerry Brown, signed the landmark legislation -- Senate Bill 54 (SB54) -- which grants better protections to people who are in the US without permission, including those who have committed crimes.

It also limits cooperation between local police forces and federal authorities in operations to track down undocumented immigrants.

The legislation, which will come into effect on January 1, 2018, is part of a series of laws which protect the almost 3 million undocumented immigrants living in California -- most of whom are from Mexico and Central America.

Brown insisted in his signing statement the measure will not "prevent or prohibit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the Department of Homeland Security from doing their own work in any way" -- but it will stop local authorities from assisting.

"They are free to use their own considerable resources to enforce federal immigration law in California," he wrote, adding that the new legislation will not deny ICE access to prisons.

But in a statement, ICE acting director Tom Homan responded: "The governor is simply wrong."

The law will "undermine public safety and hinder ICE from performing its federally mandated mission," Homan said.

"Ultimately, SB54 (...) creates another magnet for more illegal immigration," he insisted, adding ICE will have "no choice but to conduct at-large arrests in local neighborhoods and at worksites, which will inevitably result in additional collateral arrests."

ICE said it will also likely send immigrants arrested in California to detention centers outside of the state, "far from any family they may have in California."

A number of cities in California, such as Los Angeles and San Francisco, have already banned police officers from collaborating with ICE on operations to capture undocumented immigrants.

Last week, ICE detained 450 undocumented immigrants in the United States -- 101 of whom were in Los Angeles.

The bill signed into law by Brown also includes assistance for students and measures to combat abuse of tenants.

It's illegal for States to make laws that supersede the federal government's. So legally, ICE can keep working in California and could actually arrest state officials who impede them if they wanted to.

I'm assuming he's referring to federal law. In the same way that technically weed is still illegal and technically the feds could raid every single shop in Cali and shut them down. Federal law ultimately gets top billing and is supposed to take precedent above state law.
They just generally don't because it would be a shit storm if they stepped over states law like that.

Yes. I imagine Trump is going to tell ICE not to give a fuck about California Law because they work for the US Government.

And remember when it was such a shitshow that Arizona tried passing an immigration law? That's pretty much why it was such a shit show.

Yeah, it's amazing that people would rather have their lives get worse as long as it means someone else gets to suffer.

Probably pretty easy to do when you're using illegal, borderline slave labor.

How many options do illegal people have? Not many. They want a job, they take it for low salary because there are 10 other guys wanting to take it for the same price.

They aren't making minimum wage, they live a bunch of people to one house to save money and return some to home, and they are extremely expendable.

Texas California Florida and New York combined, account for 1/3 of the entire USA GDP. They all have a high amounts of illegals and yet happen to be the most prosperous states in the nation. You cant say illegals hold back the country because thats not economically true as long as we rid criminals. Politicians know this. The only reasonable argument you make against illegals is that it's illegal.

Now I'm a simple man from Kansas and all I love are America and God and guns but I did done voted for Trump because while I've never seen a Mexican before I think them bad hombres are stealing my jobs! Fuck you California.

*goes back to working on my farm that's subsidized by the federal government because I'm a welfare leech living off California's dollar*

Also all the people saying it's illegal how is that? The fed is still allowed to do their job. California just said they aren't going to use their resources to assist.

I was only asking because I was wondering what was actually being taken from you personally. so many seem like they've got a dog in this fight, but I'm not even sure what dog they have in this fight.

many weigh in on things having nothing to do with them from a place that's typically of privilege. like the 25 year old who lives at home, but want to criticize others for how they provide their own roof, you know?
