I don’t know what happens if the blue states start doing this. Look where we are, one state (AZ) gets smacked down but good when they try to enforce immigration laws then blue states start ignoring them and they may well get away with it. Wow just wow.

From the looks of things, the Republicans still have a solid majority (31/24) in the NY State Senate, so good luck with this legislation.

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!

I want the Feds to be able to roll tanks into Albany just like they'll be able to roll into Sacramento, and arrest the governors and legislators for Federal insurrection.
