Answer:

A sanctuary city is a city or county that restricts teamwork and laws with the federal immigration enforcement agents (ICE agents) in an attempt to:

  • Prioritize that immigrants have potential
  • Make sure immigrants feel safe communicating with police
  • Make sure immigrants follow the Constitution
  • Focus on immigrants who committed large crimes

Also, these cities prevent law enforcement officers from detaining any type of immigrants from any country. These cities are scientifically proven to have less crime than non-sanctuary cities.

The party that favors these sanctuary cities is the Democratic Party. They believe that immigrants should not and are not illegal. The Party that does not favor sanctuary cities is the Republican Party. They believe immigrants are illegal & they oppose the Democrats.

Hope this helps you!
