California defy’s Trump by protecting 2.6million ILLEGAL immigrants 'who live in fear'

The bills, signed by the state’s Governor Jerry Brown,
inherently defy the hard-line taken by Donald Trump
that attempt to solve the country’s issues of
immigration.
Mr Brown said: “These are uncertain times for
undocumented Californians and their families, and this
bill strikes a balance that will protect public safety
while bringing a measure of comfort to those families
who are now living in fear every day.
"This action protects public safety and ensures hard-
working people who contribute to our state are
respected.”
The legislation, that was approved last month and will
be enforced from January, limits law enforcement
officials from helping federal immigration authorities
round up and deal with illegal immigrants.

Law enforcement officers will also be unable to detain
an illegal immigrant on a hold request from the federal
government unless a felony or warrant is involved.
US Attorney General Jeff Sessions has displayed his
protest against the new bills that will ensure that
2.6million illegal immigrants stay in the state by
labelling them “sanctuary jurisdictions”.
He added: “Sanctuary policies endanger us all, and
especially the federal immigration officers who are
forced to pursue criminal aliens outside of jails and
prisons.”
The bills, that limit the effectiveness of law
enforcement officers, were addressed by White House
Press Secretary Sarah Sanders who stated that
Washington is “spending every day we can trying to
find the best way forward”.

Sanders continued: “The President will be laying out
his responsible immigration plan over the next week.
“And I hope that California will push back on their
Governor's, I think, irresponsible decision moving
forward.”
California has long been a rebellious state that goes
against the will of the President - the state was the
first to legalise medical marijuana in 1996.
Donald Trump is famous for his firm stance on
immigration with his promises to construct a wall
between the US and Mexico being one of his most
prominent policies on the campaign trail.
Contractors are currently at work on eight prototypes
for the wall that will severely inhibit the number of
illegal immigrants crossing America’s southern border.
Once constructed, the US Customs and Border
Protection will decide which of the prototypes, if any,
it wishes to use on the barrier.

Donald Trump stated his intention for the wall to be
see-through, indicating that traditional concrete
designs would be shunned.
Trump has previously reiterated that Mexico will pay
for the construction of the wall.
The President tweeted: “With Mexico being one of the
highest crime Nations in the world, we must have the
wall. Mexico will pay for it through reimbursement/
other.”
