Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin reports:
The Los Angeles city council has voted unanimously to adopt a “sanctuary” ordinance that will prohibit the use of any city personnel or resources for any federal immigration enforcement.
LAPD’s new chief has also said his officers will not participate in federal immigration enforcement.
Former LA Mayor Garcetti issued an executive directive in 2019 to protect illegal immigrants, and LAPD is already prohibited from asking about immigration status when making arrests.
The ordinance passed today will officially put these sanctuary policies on the city’s books.
I’ve reached out to the incoming Trump admin for comment/reaction. Will update.
