Trump Admin to name and shame 'sanctuary cities' after new executive order

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : While there is no strict definition of what makes a municipality a "sanctuary jurisdiction," the term is often used to describe a state, city, or town with policies which prevent local law enforcement agencies from attempting to enforce federal immigration laws or to hold prisoners or detainees longer than they normally would as a result of a civil detention request from Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
50% : This administration will enforce immigration laws," Leavitt said.
49% : The order, penned into regulation by the president during a closed-press signing event at White House, will direct leading members of the administration to publish a list of sanctuary jurisdictions -- several of which are found in the Bay State -- where officials have allegedly impeded the enforcement of immigration laws.
48% : Trump's order defines them as those places "that obstruct the enforcement of Federal immigration laws.
47% : " White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said during a morning briefing alongside "border czar" Tom Homan that avoiding the consequences of being a sanctuary jurisdiction is "quite simple." "Obey the law, respect the law, and don't obstruct federal immigration officials and law enforcement officials when they are simply trying to remove public safety threats from our nation's communities.
46% : " Boston, for example, is not a "sanctuary" city in name but the city's Trust Act, passed in 2014, directs law enforcement not to ask about immigration status, make reports to ICE, or answer a civil immigration detainer.
45% : In 2017, Trump issued Executive Order 13,768, titled "Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States," which aimed to cut funding to "sanctuary jurisdictions.
40% : President Donald Trump on Monday signed an executive order directing his attorney general to work up a list of so-called 'sanctuary cities' in the country, a rundown that could include Boston, and put them on notice they could lose funding or face other consequences. Going forward, states, cities, and towns maintaining so-called sanctuary policies will be identified and publicly listed by the federal government, according to the new executive order signed by Trump, and may face a loss of federal funding if they don't change their ways.
38% : Beyond cities and towns, the state itself may make the Trump administration's list, considering the state's Supreme Judicial Court ruled in the 2017 Lunn decision that a civil detention request from federal immigration agents isn't sufficient for a Massachusetts court to keep a person under arrest beyond their court imposed sentence or outside of normal holding guidelines.
37% : This is not the first time that Trump has attempted to take aim at 'sanctuary cities.
34% : Since taking office a second time, Trump has signed EO 14,159, "Protecting the American People Against Invasion" and EO 14,218, "Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Open Borders," both of which attempt the same sort of funding halt.
14% : They are disgracing our Country, and are being mocked all over the World," Trump wrote.
