My city has what the governor and AG are calling "sanctuary city policy." Really the sheriff has just said they do not take a stance, but they don't have the resources to handle the immigration responsibility the state wants them to take on. So the AG is wasting tax dollars bringing them to court this Wednesday to try and force the community to adopt federal policy. How bout that small government and fiscal responsibility? permalink fedilink source parent [–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 child) Our local cops owe their authority to the State I have a hard time imagining a world with cops at all that don't end up doing this permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AcidicBasicGlitch@lemm.ee [S] 4 points 1 year ago They are supposed to have some freedom from the state within their own city/county jurisdiction, but small government loving members of the GOP are trying to do away with that and force cities and counties to adopt state policy(which is often just federal policy).
