The city created the program because U.S. legislators “don’t have the will to pass a coherent border strategy,” the mayor said Tuesday. Instead legislators have allowed immigrants to move here, but forced them to be “invisible,” said the mayor.

From the truling against Hazelton, PA

Let's see: federal judges have NO problems with cities creating sanctuary zones and awarding benefit to illegals but its unconstitutional for cities to prohibit illegals from settling in their midst and receiving public services. Does any one else notice the hypocrisy? Apparently, respect for the rule of law goes in one direction only.
