Executive Order threatens cuts to federal funding of any jurisdiction that refuses to hold individuals for possible deportation
Executive Order threatens cuts of federal funding of any jurisdiction that refuses to hold individuals for possible deportation
Source: Governing the States and Localities - Public Safety and Justice, February 10, 2017
"President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Jan. 25, 2017 promising to punish any 'sanctuary jurisdictions' that 'attempt to shield aliens from removal from the United States.' The order threatened cuts to federal funding and public shaming of 'any jurisdiction that ignored or otherwise failed to honor any detainers.'”
On the other hand, some involved in law enforcement who operate jails have liability concerns and many will not honor detaining orders without a warrant signed by a judge.
