GOPDD: DOJ Final Notice To 8 Sanctuary Cities, 1 County – Miss This Deadline, Lose The Bucks

Apr 22, 2017 by Rick Wells

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has officially put nine sanctuary cities on notice that some of the federal grants they currently are receiving will soon be revoked if they fail to prove they are in compliance with what they seem to think is the “antiquated” concept of obeying US immigration laws.
On Friday the Department of Justice sent letters to eight cities and one county warning them to discontinue their current practice of limiting communications with the Department of Homeland Security in the areas of “information regarding the immigration or citizenship status” of prisoners.
