一名联邦法官停止了特朗普政府因不配合移民执法而扣留“避难所”城市和县拨款的努力。
法官威廉·奥瑞克(William Orrick)发布的15页命令批准了政府扣留资金的初步禁令,并扩大了因无证移民的“避难所”地位而不能扣留联邦资金的城市数量。
由于缺乏与移民当局的合作,特朗普政府试图剥夺这些城市的住房和城市发展(HUD)拨款。
Judge halts efforts to withhold grant funding for 'sanctuary cities'
A federal judge halted the Trump administration's efforts to withhold grant funding from "sanctuary" cities and counties for not cooperating with immigration enforcement.
The 15-page order from Judge William Orrick grants a preliminary injunction in the administration's effort to withhold funds and expands the number of cities that federal funds can't be withheld from due to their "sanctuary" status for undocumented immigrants.
The Trump administration has sought to strip the cities' Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grants due to their lack of cooperation with immigration authorities.
