The Phoenix City Council on Wednesday turned down a petition to adopt sanctuary status for immigrants following a contentious and emotional discussion that ended with chants against the council.

Thank God, Sal DiCiccio is on top of this and have kept the public informed on what is going on at City Hall.

I am very happy with this being turned down.

Good for Phoenix.

I notice the report didn’t mention the vote count.

Evidently it was defeated quite handily.

That’s the only reason the media wouldn’t want it revealed.

Well Phoenix got it right on this one IMO. Now if you guys would get rid of McCain and Flake that would be icing on the cake. Too bad about Sheriff Joe.

I think we can venture a secure guess that the value of real estate in Phoenix rose simultaneous to the announcement of that vote. .
