During his campaign, Trump said he would cancel all federal funding to so-called “sanctuary cities.” On Saturday, Hodges pledged to ignore President Trump when he takes office. According to Hodges, she will see to it that Minneapolis law enforcement officers will not assist federal agents in tracking down illegal aliens.
Hodges released a statement Saturday titled “Support for Immigrant Community Keeps Minneapolis Safer”:
“I will continue to stand by immigrants in Minneapolis. For years, Minneapolis has codified in ordinance that our police officers will not do the work of the Federal government and ICE regarding immigration status. If police officers were to do the work of ICE it would harm our ability to keep people safe and solve crimes. Witnesses and victims of crimes won’t come forward if they think our police officers will question or detain them about their immigration status. Our ordinance has helped us solve crime and keep communities safer. If our police were doing the work of ICE, Minneapolis would be less safe for everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Anyone been watching “ Designated Survivor”?
Great, use the abandoned federal funds from these cities to build the wall. Funded totally by mexico and sanctuary cities
Guess she won’t mind using local taxpayer money in springing for the full cost on all of that cities programs then.
Cut all federal funds from Minneapolis and also bring her up on charges for obstruction of justice and possibly a RICO charge for aiding the systematic importation of illegal aliens. The bring her up on treason charges as an example as she is aiding in the invasion of the United States.
Go ahead, idiot....
She just set herself up.
Now every person who is robbed, raped, sliced or shot by one of “her protected immigrants” can sue her personally.
Can a president fire a mayor?
Yes, admitting illegal aliens into the city keeps people “safer”
Only a liberal could come up with that logic.
Yes. How do you ignore not getting federal monies?
Hmmm Minneapolis the new Yucca Mountain, All in favor say I !
well, Betsy, it’s gonna be fun watching you ignore all of that Federal money that suddenly doesn’t show up!
It was sunny and 64 degrees in Minneapolis, today. 5 bucks says Mayor Hodges didn’t take a stroll alone through the Cedar - Riverside neighborhood.
OK. No money for your city.
A mayor harboring criminals is engaged in a crime.
Law and Order! Lock him up until he respects the laws of this country!
cupid stunt......
