California Judge Blocks One, Upholds Two ‘Sanctuary State’ Laws

Breitbart CA: A federal judge in Sacramento partially blocked one of California’s “sanctuary state” laws, but upheld two others, on Thursday.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a challenge in March against the Inspection and Review of Facilities Housing Federal Detainees law (AB 103); the Immigrant Worker Protection Act (AB 450); and the California Values Act (SB 54). Attorney General Jeff Sessions traveled specially to Sacramento for the filing.

Judge John Mendez, a George W. Bush appointee, declined the state’s request in April to transfer the case to a more liberal federal court San Francisco. That was thought to be a good sign for the Trump administration’s case, but the judge ruled largely in the state’s favor Thursday, upholding AB 103 and SB 54, while blocking enforcement of portions of AB 450.  more

  1. “(His decision only affected the application of DOJ for a preliminary injunction against the state’s effort to enforce its sanctuary laws; the final merits of the case are still yet to be decided later in the legal process.)”

    More will be revealed.

  2. Sanctuary cities are laying the foundation for anarchy. If cities are an just choose to ignore federal law can the choose to ignore state law? If the city can choose to ignore state law can I as a citizen choose to ignore city laws?

    Unintended consequences of voting libtars.
