Two Bay Area cities have landed on a list of sanctuary jurisdictions that “impede enforcement of federal immigration laws,” according to a statement released by the U.S. Department of Justice. San Francisco and Berkeley are two of 18 cities the DOJ identified in a list released this week as having policies, regulations, or laws that impede immigration enforcement. “The Department of Justice will continue bringing litigation against sanctuary jurisdictions and work closely with the Department of Homeland Security to eradicate these harmful policies around the country,” U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. In the last several months, the DOJ has filed lawsuits against sanctuary jurisdictions to “compel compliance” with federal immigration law, including New York City at the end of last month. And, in the case of Louisville, the receipt of a letter threatening legal action was enough for the city to revoke their sanctuary status, DOJ officials said in a statement. The list also includes California, the city of Los Angeles and San Diego County. The DOJ’s list is a narrower version of an earlier list from the Department of Homeland Security that included over 500 sanctuary jurisdictions. That list, released back in May, identified cities like Alameda, Fremont, Martinez, Richmond, and Santa Rosa for allegedly obstructing immigration enforcement. For jurisdictions that are already on the list, the DOJ said it will “assist any jurisdiction that desires to be taken off this list to identify and eliminate their sanctuary policies, so they no longer stand in opposition to federal immigration enforcement.”

WOOT WOOT!!
AWESOME!
Go get ’em Bondi!
Sanctuary Cities and States should not exist.
No City or State should be able to blatantly violate Federal Law. Violate the law, the leaders of that City or State should be arrested and jailed. How good would it be to see Newscum behind bars?
WOOT WOOT!
Polls show that the public overwhelmingly supports the arrest and deportation of criminal aliens! There should be no mercy or compassion. Safety of the citizens comes first. Somehow the Democrat leaders aren’t getting this message… they’re in their own orbit… and the public is waking up to the fact.
Shocking lol.
Berkeley’s mayor from 2016-2024 was Jesse Arreguin, a member of the far left, violence-inciting group BAMN (By Any Means Necessary). How these people get elected is beyond me. I doubt the new mayor is any more moderate.
Elected officials who don’t follow the law should be removed from office.
CA residents Never Voted to be Santuary State, in fact We voted against this with Prop 187. Jerry Brown then passed SB 54, but it wasn’t approved by voters. Should have Never Been Allowed in the first flipping place. Glad to see someone actually doing their job to Stop this Insanity. Sanctuary and DACA doesn’t help Anyone, especially Americans and Our Immigrants that come Legally.
I love California on ICE…. my favorite drink.
City leaders decided on their own to declare themselves as a ‘sanctuary’ and impede law enforcement agencies. This endangers the community. Any community member victimized by someone free by the sanctuary should file a major lawsuit.
Anybody here illegally is by definition a criminal alien, as they have broken one of our fundamental laws be entering illegally. They should be deported and if they wish to abide by our laws, apply to enter legally.
The dumb dim and dopey democrats believe that they can pick and choose which laws are valid and which laws aren’t.
Right on Bondi! Keep up the good work.
Martinez. Ridiculous! Get rid of the city council if they can’t or won’t comply with Federal law. I can’t stand Trump, but I believe in the rule of law. If you don’t like Federal immigration law, then fight to change it. Until then, you must obey it. Those that advocate “sanctuary” laws are no better than the confederates pre-1860 who screamed about nullification and “state rights.” Shame on Martinez City Council
Double secret probation. 🤪
