The so-called "No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act" would punish cities and states that have policies limiting cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. This bill threatens to withhold crucial federal funding that provides food, shelter, healthcare, and other vital services to all residents, regardless of immigration status. Cutting off these funds would harm entire communities and undermine public safety and trust in law enforcement. Rather than promoting divisive and counterproductive policies, we should focus on creating an immigration system that is fair, humane, and upholds our values. I urge you to vote against this harmful legislation and instead work towards comprehensive immigration reform that keeps families together and creates a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants who have established lives in our communities.
