L.A. Sheriff Lobbies White House to Protect $132M from Sanctuary City Ban

 

Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell has been lobbying the Trump administration in an attempt to keep funding that the region stands to lose over its sanctuary city policies.

McDonnell has made multiple trips to Washington, D.C. to ask the government not to withhold federal funds, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. The Sheriff complained to the outlet that loss of the federal grant funds would “would have a negative impact on public safety in L.A. County and Southern California.”

However, instead of working toward cooperation with federal immigration officials that could keep the funding intact, the Sheriff appears focused on retaining the sanctuary policies while also keeping the federal funding that U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has warned could be in peril.

McDonnell has met with Sessions as well as former Secretary of Homeland Security John Kelly, who now serves as White House Chief of Staff. He has also reportedly spent time lobbying members of Congress in his attempts to hold on to the $132 million the county could lose over the next three years.

$105 of the $132 million potentially in peril for Los Angeles would come from the development of an enhanced radio and broadband communication system for law enforcement and first responders, according to the report.

Denver effectively announced they are a Sanctuary City, populace not happy, will wait the bleating when Fed funds cut off.

Isn't that much like declaring your self as withdrawing from the US. 

But they care so much more that you do.

 

Does anyone know where the MDL is?  Are they on vacation in New Jersey or something?

Waiting for more brave souls to arrive first, helps with the groupthink.

Government Holiday maybe today.
