人兽性交

Background Information

For decades, the federal government has sought to use local law enforcement agencies to enhance its immigration enforcement efforts. All too often, these agencies have been happy to oblige 鈥� to the detriment of public safety and community building.

Across the South, local and state legislators have handed over our tax dollars to support the federal immigration dragnet, and many city police and county sheriff departments have willingly agreed to spend our tax dollars on federal immigration enforcement. What鈥檚 more, the Trump administration has punished 鈥渟anctuary鈥� or 鈥渨elcoming鈥� cities and counties 鈥� those that have chosen not to entangle themselves in federal immigration law enforcement 鈥� by illegally cutting off federal funding.

The 人兽性交 is committed to reducing the entanglement of federal immigration enforcement and local law enforcement agencies across the Deep South.聽To continue reading, click here.
