West #Michigan counties refute sanctuary jurisdictions list
by: Josh Sanchez
Posted: May 31, 2025Excerpt:
"News 8 reached out to DHS to learn what exactly led them to consider #KalamazooCounty as a '#SanctuaryJurisdiction.”"While a spokesperson did not provide specific reasons, they shared what some of the conditions could be.
" 'Designation of a sanctuary jurisdiction is based on the evaluation of numerous factors, including self-identification as a sanctuary jurisdiction, noncompliance with Federal law enforcement in enforcing immigration laws, restrictions on information sharing, and legal protections for illegal aliens,' the spokesperson said.
They added that the list will be regularly reviewed, updated and can change at any time." (!!!)

Some #Colorado counties say they were shocked to be labeled '#SanctuaryJurisdictions’

FacebookCOLORADO, USA — "Local leaders across Colorado are pushing back after the Trump administration published a list labeling dozens of cities and counties as 'sanctuary jurisdictions.'
"The list, released earlier this week by the Department of Homeland Security, included 41 counties and 15 cities in Colorado.
"Among them were communities where leaders have publicly supported President Trump’s immigration policies. Since its release, at least three jurisdictions — Weld County, El Paso County, and the city of Aurora — have successfully lobbied for removal from the list.
" 'There was definitely a mistake made,' Otero County Commissioner Tim Knabenshue said. 'Constituents started calling us and saying, ‘What’s going on? We thought we weren’t a sanctuary county'.'
"The list, titled Sanctuary Jurisdictions Defying Federal Immigration Law, does not have a consistent or legally recognized definition for what constitutes a sanctuary jurisdiction. It is generally associated with local policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities. Under an executive order signed by President Trump, jurisdictions identified as non-compliant could face cuts to federal funding."
