SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA)
Attorney General Jeff Sessions is coming to Sacramento on Wednesday morning to make a "major sanctuary jurisdiction announcement," officials with the Department of Justice released Tuesday.
The announcement will be happening at the 26th annual Law Enforcement Legislative Day hosted by the California Peace Officers' Association at the Kimpton Sawyer Hotel next to the Golden 1 Center.
Sessions' appearance in Sacramento comes a week after more than 150 people were arrested in California for being in the country illegally during a three-day sweep by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
About half of those arrested for being in the country illegally had criminal convictions, ICE officials said.
A day before the sweep began, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf warned residents about the sweep, calling it her "duty and moral obligation" to warn families.
A top immigration official said Wednesday that about 800 people living illegally in Northern California were able to avoid arrest because of Schaaf's warning.
"What she did is no better than a gang lookout yelling 'police' when a police cruiser comes in the neighborhood, except she did it to a whole community," Thomas Homan, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting chief, told "Fox and Friends."
California became known as a "sanctuary state" after Senate Bill 54 was signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown. It went into effect on Jan. 1 and prohibits police from asking questions about someone's immigration status during routine interactions.

Fire Sessions, prosecute those who obstruct justice. Build the da#$ wall. Grrrrrrrrrr!
Let me do it for you:
I expect Sessions to come down hard on sanctuaries. He knows hes in the doghouse and I bet he wants to earn some cred.
Ill do one for you:
-
Actually I think he’s going there to apologize.
Sessions should announce a Federal arrest warrant for Libby Schaaf and see her arrested on that warrant in the following half hour
And without a gun for protection.
He’s got this going for him
We will be lucky if Sessions announces he has a pulse. :-(
Good move. It can be *very* entertaining.
Maybe, but here's the way I kinda see this.
There are some guys robbing a bank. Someone outside the bank sees cop cars approaching, lights flashing. The person outside the bank makes a phone call to one of the robbers and tells him to get out cuz the cops are coming. Did the guy outside the bank break any laws?
Unless he’s going to ask California that they pay back every federal grant and loan for the past 150 years and at which time they can secede, then it’s not a major annoucement...
LOL!
“Did the guy outside the bank break any laws? “
IMO, the guy making the call became an accessory to the crime. But the crime only existed from the time the perp walked into the bank and initiated the robbery.
The Mex aliens were already illegal and are being serviced by the city/county gov. The Mayor is more of a conspirator than an accessory.
You should be able to compress that down about one inch long, in 18 font.
“Did the guy break any laws.”
I say arrest him for being an accessory and let the courts settle it.
Same for the Oakland mayor.
A mayor would work...
I believe there WAS a woman in
Texas that was holding a sign
up for passing motorists warning
of a speed trap ahead, she was
arrested.
Good point
Point taken.
