Mayor Andy Ginther countered President Donald Trump's executive order with one of his own.
The mayor said Columbus will be a welcoming place for immigrants and refugees and city resources won't be used to enforce immigration laws.
The executive order comes just days after Trump banned immigrants from seven majority-Muslim nations. That ban led to large protests over the weekend at John Glenn International Airport.
About 50 protesters demonstrated outside City Hall Monday evening calling on Columbus to designate itself a "sanctuary city". Ginther's executive order stops short of that but the protesters said they supported the steps he took.

Trump needs to hold every one of these mayors accountable if any single illegal commits a murder. Prosecute.
50 people protest and the mayor goes against federal law. I’m beginning to believe that half the in this country are Satanists or smackdab nuts.
Don’t get panicky. Leftists are basically emotional children lashing out like a tantrum. They wither in the face of a tough alpha male like DJT, and BANNON! Don’t forget about Bannon. These two are not going to lose this battle..lol.
The citizens of Columbus should be burning up the phone lines to the mayor’s office. I cannot imagine this jerk has the support of most of his city. If he does, this country is in worse shape than I thought.
That accomplishes little how about just enforcing the law and haul these guys into lockup.
Shamelessly Stolen from Freeper eye amok.

The courts have already ruled that immigration is a power of the Federal government.
But thank you for opinion.
Trump needs to invite all these mayors and the governs thereof to the WH...and arrest the law-breakers then and there. Then, calmly inform the others present, “Shape up, follow the law or I will fill the cells with the rest of youz.”
Pathetic mayor Ginther.
He looks just like the heads the little ISIS kids kick around for fun.
Why isnt refusing to enforce the law a criminal offense?
...
State’s rights. Locals don’t have to help the feds enforce federal law.
A year ago he was up to his eyeballs with accusations that he took bribes in the red-light camera case, then he got anointed by Michael Coleman to succeed his as mayor, wins the election and now his name disappears from the news regarding the case.
