Sanctuary City Sues Trump Administration Over Arrival Of Too Many Immigrants

New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham announced the federal lawsuit on Monday.

Albuquerque, NM – The State of New Mexico and the sanctuary city of Albuquerque have filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration for releasing too many immigrants into the state’s border cities.

The lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico on Monday, alleged that President Trump’s administration has enacted an “indiscriminate practice of releasing migrants in communities,” in violation of the federal “safe release” policy, KVIA reported.

The federal “safe release” policy was canceled in October of 2018 due to the massive wave of immigrants who flooded over the U.S. southern border from Central America.

That policy provided those seeking asylum with assistance in getting to their final destinations while they were waiting for their claims to be processed, KVIA reported.

“[The] sudden and unlawful abandonment of this policy was done without notice or opportunity for input by affected jurisdictions,” the lawsuit alleged.

The sanctuary city and the State of New Mexico has also demanded to be reimbursed for the funds it has shelled out to temporarily shelter immigrants.

The lawsuit alleges that the financial burden was caused by the federal government’s "derogation of duty to administer this country's immigration system and claims of asylum,” KVIA reported.

That would be the governor who pulled the state national guard off the border thereby causing chaos to New Mexico. Reap what you sow.

Is this a joke? Do sanctuary cities even have standing to file such a complaint?

No No No Guv. You just loves you some illegal immigrants. Well.....have some more. This is exactly what you said you wanted when you went out of your way to not cooperate with the feds in trying to enforce immigration laws.

Best part is, the President is shoving it down the throats of liberals, who may, in fact (a few of them) WAKE UP to the fact that America is being INVADED.

When it hits their pocketbooks in a noticeable way, including loss of employment, they will be forced to wake up.

A few of them, anyways.
