North Carolina outlaws sanctuary cities


North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory signed a bill into law Wednesday that bans any policy that interferes with the enforcement of federal immigration laws.

The Protect N.C. Workers Act,HB 318, reins in local and municipal policies that disregarded federal law by providing sanctuary or "safe" cities, and public benefits like food stamps, for individuals illegally in the U.S.

Which is ridiculous given the fact local jurisdictions can't be 'forced' to use their law enforcement resources to 'enforce' Federal laws.

Cities and towns will detain suspected undocumented immigrants at the request of Federal authorities, but there's nothing in Federal law compelling them to unilaterally seek out those undocumented for detention, and electing not to do so doesn't constitute a given jurisdiction as a 'sanctuary city,' nor manifest as 'interfering' with the enforcement of Federal immigration laws.

This law is an inane 'solution' in search of a 'problem.'
 
I applaud North Carolina, but it won't really matter much while we have a president in there that believes the Justice Department should prosecute our state and local official peace officers who believe in defending the public through immigration laws as written.

Bullshit.

There are cites that specifically make it illegal for officers to inquire about legal status of those that have been detained or arrested. The very idea is the height of idiocy as those are the EXACT illegal immigrants that we should be checking on.
 
This law is rather irrelevant and only showboating unless there was an actual city that tried to pass a sanctuary law. AFAIK, SC is not known for that concept. Was there such a case?
 
nc has been fucked over by the gop.......use to be first in education...now teachers are fleeing the state........bunch of fucking idiots....in raleigh
 
Good to see, violent immigrants will not have free reign to do whatever they want...
 
Yeah but....sanctuary cities are already against the law. How do liberals get to violate the immigration law and other related stuff like harboring a felon? The freaking world is upside down when a state has to pass a law that requires cities to obey federal law and lefties still complain about it.
