Poll: Majority of Voters Want DOJ Action Against Sanctuary Cities
Breitbart ^ | July 13, 2015 | By Caroline May

Posted on 07/13/2015 11:44:41 AM PDT by Brad from Tennessee

A majority of likely voters say action should be taken against jurisdictions with sanctuary policies for illegal immigrants, according to a new Rasmussen Reports survey.

The poll found that 62 percent of likely voters think the Justice Department “should take legal action against cities that provide sanctuary for illegal immigrants.” Just 26 percent opposed the idea, and 12 percent were undecided.

On the separate question of whether the federal government should cut off funds to sanctuary cities, 58 percent of likely voters agreed, 32 percent disagreed, and 10 percent were undecided. Rasmussen notes that the results for this question have seen little movement since 2011.

The results come on the heels of the murder of Kathryn Steinle by a multiple-deportee, multiple-felon in San Francisco, a sanctuary city. Since her murder, law makers have introduced legislation to halt certain funding for such jurisdictions and requested the Justice Department take action to discourage such policies. . .

Yeah well like repealing Obamacare, lowering taxes and keeping a traditional definition of marriage, that’s just not going to happen.

Now go pay your taxes: sanctuary cities desperately need the money. :)

Oh my, don’t tell this to the women on “The View” because they will call everyone on that poll racist.
I left an older female relative watching that cr@p this morning and they are calling Trump all sorts of names for telling the truth.
I don’t know why some women are so gullible to BS shows like that.

But, Houston, we have ANOTHER PROBLEM that needs addressing ASAP!
If Obama’s “fundamental transformation of  America”  has not yet drawn your attention,  perhaps this will.  If your  blood fails to reach  212, check for a pulse!

Never gonna happen. The current DoJ is controlled by a racist, anti-American, Left-wing SJW.

Wonder if the House can cut off funds to sanctuary cities or at least tie funding to lawful immigration enforcement?
