Donald Trump wants to deport migrants en masse. But Los Angeles is taking steps: The multicultural metropolis is giving itself a special status – much to the annoyance of the Republicans.
In light of the mass deportation of undocumented migrants announced by Donald Trump, the Californian metropolis of Los Angeles has given itself the status of a “sanctuary city.” On Wednesday, the city council voted unanimously for the ordinance that prohibits the city from using resources or personnel to implement federal immigration laws.
The vote was linked to an urgency clause, meaning that the ordinance could come into force just ten days after it is signed by Mayor Karen Bass. “We have been an immigration-friendly city for years, and we know that the new president has us in his sights,” said City Councilor Bob Blumenfield. The previous “good policy to protect immigrants” will be strengthened in this way.
