The Trump administration released an order on Wednesday saying the Department of Transportation will prioritize grants to communities that are cooperating with immigration officials.
The order sent from the Department of Transportation is entitled “Ensuring reliance upon sound economic analysis in DOT policies, programs, and activities.”
The main thrust of the order is to ensure that all funding is applied to projects that make sense on a cost-benefit basis, a goal that would eliminate the left-wing political projects that Biden’s DOT funded.
However, there is also a provision in the order that states that communities will be given priority for their projects if they “require local compliance or cooperation with Federal immigration enforcement,” the Latin Times noted.
The memo also warns that contractors taking federal dollars may not employ illegal migrants.

Better idea: Send the money back to the taxpayers. Close the DOT.
How about you try thinking rather then knee jerk contrarianism and deflection for a change?

I honestly despaired that we would EVER seen common sense in our government ever again. Whoever would have believed that one SUPER MAN could do all this?
I fear the enemy is regrouping, however, and Lord knows what they are planning.
Amen
Trump is not going to threaten the idiots running sanctuary cities and sanctuary states.
They want to engage in a war of words in which Elite Stream Media will take their side.
Trump NEVER does what his enemies want him to do.

Eliminate all fed trans taxes. 5 year transition period during which no fed involvement. The states either pass replacement taxes or not.
