"The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected the Trump administration’s request for the justices to hear arguments in a legal challenge to California’s “sanctuary city” laws, which protect undocumented immigrants from deportation. While the decision is likely to be overshadowed by the Court’s watershed civil rights ruling granting gay, lesbian, and transgender workers protection from discrimination under Title VII, attorneys said the Court’s denial is a stinging loss for the president and the latest in a continuing trend of federal court losses over sanctuary city laws.
By refusing to hear the Justice Department’s appeal, the justices left in place a lower court decision which left intact a series of laws designed to limit state officials’ cooperation with federal immigration enforcement authorities. Only staunchly conservative Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito voted in favor of hearing the appeal. "
