Are "Sanctuary cities" constitutional?

An honest question. I am no legal scholar, but since this is still a nation of laws, and NOBODY is above the laws (Look at the Trump Impeachment kerfuffle) then it begs the question. When local authorities give illegal aliens sanctuary from federal law without consent of the voter and ignore our wishes, doesn't that violate our compact with our elected government?

ICE, and all federal LE agencies enforce Federal Laws. Local Police/Sheriff agencies do not have the authority to enforce Federal Laws. The can do so as a courtesy, but the FEDS expect local gov't taxpayers and local gov't agencies to enforce Federal law, and to keep them in custody at the expense of the local government.

This turf war has been on going for decades.

Your ignorance is only exceeded by your foolishness. Next time do some research. The link to CA's Penal Code provides the ability of local and state law enforcement to arrest and prosecute counterfeiting of dozens of items (listed in the link, including money) as FRAUD.
“State and local law enforcement officials have the general power to investigate and arrest violators of federal immigration statutes without prior Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) knowledge or approval, as long as they are authorized to enforce federal law in general. Although immigration is a federal matter, local law enforcement departments and personnel are not required to turn a blind eye to any illegal activity including violations of immigration law. It is illegal for local governments to prohibit police cooperation with the INS, and individual officers who report violations are protected by law.

Although the Illegal Immigration and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRAIRA) of 1996 provied new authority for empowering local law enforcement agencies to enforce immigration law provisions against aliens illegally in the country, local police were never powerless to act on immigration law violations before adoption of that legislation. Local police departments have always had the ability to collaborate with the INS in enforcement operations. An example was local cooperation with the INS and the FBI in locating and interviewing foreign students from Middle Eastern countries following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

In addition, Section 274(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), as amended in 1986, authorizes "...all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws," to arrest persons for smuggling, harboring or transporting illegal aliens. Furthermore, federal courts had repeatedly affirmed since 1984 that local police may inquire into immigration violations in the course of a routine stop (see e.g., U.S. v. Salinas-Calderon).”

Congressional interest in the child tax credit received by taxpayers without SSNs increased after a 2011 report by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).6 The report found that ITIN filers whose returns were processed in 2010 claimed $4.2 billion worth of the ACTC, increasing from $924 million in 2005 and $2.1 billion in 2008. For returns processed in 2010, the average ACTC claimed by ITIN filers was $1,800.7 Of note, these figures did not necessarily represent the annual revenue losses associated with ITIN filers claiming the ACTC. For example, the report detailed that for returns processed in 2010, approximately 11% of claimants submitted tax returns for multiple years, claiming a little more than $1 billion in ACTCs. 8 The report recommended “legislation to clarify whether a social security number which is valid for employment is needed to claim the ACTC.”9 Around the same time that the TIGTA report was issued, there were media reports on a different issue regarding ITIN filers and the child tax credit. 10 These reports focused on allegations that some ITIN filers who resided in the United States had claimed the ACTC for children who were not U.S. citizens or nationals and had never resided in the United States. If true, it appears these ITIN filers violated the law. The problem is not that they are ITIN filers—as discussed above, ITIN filers may claim the ACTC under current law. Rather, it appears these ACTC claims were improper because the children did not qualify for the credit since, by law, a qualifying child must be a U.S. citizen, resident, or national. 11
 
How do Undocumented Immigrants Pay Federal Taxes? An Explainer | Bipartisan Policy Center

What is an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)?
In 1996, the Internal Revenue Service created the ITIN to provide a way for noncitizens who earn income in the United States, including legally-present noncitizens who do not have Social Security numbers, to pay taxes on money earned in the United States while not being technically employed by a U.S employer. For example, ITINs allow foreign nationals to pay taxes on the interest earned in a U.S. bank or investment account. They also allow spouses of work-authorized visa-holders to pay taxes on self-employment income, among other uses.

Most experts believe that the vast majority of tax returns filed with ITINs today are filed by undocumented immigrants rather than the intended recipient groups—a few categories of noncitizens who do not have a Social Security number and are not authorized to work but who are still earning income and legally residing in the United States. In 2010, ITINs were used to file over 3 million federal tax returns.
 
I missed something somewhere, perhaps. But giving sanctuary for illegal aliens was NEVER on any ballot measure. If it was, you name it. It was imposed on us against our will. And that makes it clearly unconstitutional. You disagree?

I don't disagree............but as I stated they use Legal Loop holes around it. The same way they use Flores to force the Border Patrol to release illegals who claim asylum.

The legal eagles have found ways to cut the illegals loose into our country.........who just blend in, changer their names and never show up for court..............When they don't ICE issues detainer orders into the data base..........and Sanctuary cities just ignore them when they are caught.

No.

There is no such thing as a ‘sanctuary city’:

‘There is much confusion about the term “sanctuary city.” The term is often used derisively by immigration opponents to blast what are best described as community policing policies. Critics claim that these cities and states provide “sanctuary” to undocumented immigrants, but research shows that the opposite is true. In fact, community policing policies are about providing public safety services, not sanctuary, to both immigrant residents and the entire community. Crime experts, including hundreds of local police officers, have found that cities with community policing policies continue to work closely with DHS and have built bridges to immigrant communities that have improved their ability to fight crime and protect the entire community.’

Debunking the Myth of "Sanctuary Cities"

Indeed, it’s un-Constitutional for the Federal government to compel state and local governments to enforce Federal laws – including Federal immigration laws.

Moreover, that an immigrant might be undocumented doesn’t mean he’s ‘illegal’ – it’s perfectly appropriate, warranted, and consistent with the Constitution for a local jurisdiction to recognize and respect the right of immigrants to a presumption of innocence and due process of the law.

It’s also perfectly appropriate, warranted, and consistent with the Constitution for local jurisdictions to refrain from using their limited law enforcement resources to pursue immigrants suspected of entering the country absent authorization.

When asked by Federal authorities to assist with the detention of an immigrant suspect, all local jurisdictions comply with that request.

But local jurisdictions are at liberty to not engage in the unilateral pursuit of immigrant suspects if not requested to do so by Federal authorities.

Furthermore, federal courts had repeatedly affirmed since 1984 that local police may inquire into immigration violations in the course of a routine stop (see e.g., U.S. v. Salinas-Calderon).”

LOL, your source is not legitimate. The Code of Federal Regulations and the US Code are the only sources which would, and don't, require local and state policing agencies to do the work of Federal Le agencies.

They can and do work together as do local agencies do in mutual aid compacts. When drag nets such as those trump has ordered local government and state governments are not required to do the work of the Federal Government.

See and read the 10th Amendment for confirmation.
 
The feds can't, but the States can.

Stop giving them federal dollars until they rein in their wayward cities.

Problem solved.
An honest question. I am no legal scholar, but since this is still a nation of laws, and NOBODY is above the laws (Look at the Trump Impeachment kerfuffle) then it begs the question. When local authorities give illegal aliens sanctuary from federal law without consent of the voter and ignore our wishes, doesn't that violate our compact with our elected government?

ICE, and all federal LE agencies enforce Federal Laws. Local Police/Sheriff agencies do not have the authority to enforce Federal Laws. The can do so as a courtesy, but the FEDS expect local gov't taxpayers and local gov't agencies to enforce Federal law, and to keep them in custody at the expense of the local government.

This turf war has been on going for decades.
So a sheriff can’t arrest money counterfeiters?

Your lies are beyond hilarious they are so stupid.

Codes Display Text.

Your ignorance is only exceeded by your foolishness. Next time do some research. The link to CA's Penal Code provides the ability of local and state law enforcement to arrest and prosecute counterfeiting of dozens of items (listed in the link, including money) as FRAUD.
“State and local law enforcement officials have the general power to investigate and arrest violators of federal immigration statutes without prior Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) knowledge or approval, as long as they are authorized to enforce federal law in general. Although immigration is a federal matter, local law enforcement departments and personnel are not required to turn a blind eye to any illegal activity including violations of immigration law. It is illegal for local governments to prohibit police cooperation with the INS, and individual officers who report violations are protected by law.

Although the Illegal Immigration and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRAIRA) of 1996 provied new authority for empowering local law enforcement agencies to enforce immigration law provisions against aliens illegally in the country, local police were never powerless to act on immigration law violations before adoption of that legislation. Local police departments have always had the ability to collaborate with the INS in enforcement operations. An example was local cooperation with the INS and the FBI in locating and interviewing foreign students from Middle Eastern countries following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

In addition, Section 274(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), as amended in 1986, authorizes "...all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws," to arrest persons for smuggling, harboring or transporting illegal aliens. Furthermore, federal courts had repeatedly affirmed since 1984 that local police may inquire into immigration violations in the course of a routine stop (see e.g., U.S. v. Salinas-Calderon).”

Do the right thing and admit you are a damn liar. The only source you've posted as evidence is a right wing source web site. STFU, you've been proved to be another jerk who fails to mislead the readers.

I’m a liar says the Dufus who claims local law enforcement can’t arrest people for Federal crimes.
 
No The Federal government needs to cut off all funding to these cities and see how quickly they become "unsancuary" Cities
 
Most of you have no idea what a sanctuary city is or why it exists. You’re just repeating conservative talking points. #sad
A sanctuary city is a city whose leadership is more invested in virtue signaling than protecting its citizens.
