Overview
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and Los Angeles City Council member Hugo Soto-Martinez have pledged to maintain their cities' sanctuary policies in defiance of President-elect Donald Trump's immigration proposals, which include mass deportations. Both mayors argue that such measures harm their communities. Similar sentiments are echoed nationwide among Democratic leaders. They have voiced their commitment to protecting undocumented immigrants amid a backdrop of heightened tensions surrounding immigration enforcement. This resistance sets the scene for a larger national debate over immigration policy as the Trump administration takes office.
