Orange County launch new steps against sanctuary law

Orange County Supervisors Michelle Steel and Shawn Nelson. ​

The anti-sanctuary movement is gaining momentum.

On Thursday, three days after Los Alamitos made national news by launching an ordinance to defy California’s so-called sanctuary law, two Orange County supervisors said they plan to introduce measures next week that range from a county resolution similar in spirit to the ordinance passed in Los Alamitos, to filing a lawsuit against the state.

On the Orange County Board of Supervisors, Shawn Nelson said he’ll ask his colleagues next week to consider either joining a U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit, which was filed against California earlier this month, or to initiate separate legal action.

Nelson pointed to two new California laws he criticized as pre-empting federal law. The one targeted by Los Alamitos, SB-54, dubbed the California Values Act, limits cooperation between local and state officials with federal immigration authorities. The second, AB-103, gives California authority to inspect federal detention facilities. Orange County is home to two jails that house people on immigration detention: Theo Lacey and James A. Musick.

Orange County is “uniquely affected” by those laws, Nelson said Thursday.

“It is completely improper for the state to demand for law enforcement to not work with authorities who have jurisdiction on this issue,” said Nelson.

The California Value Act includes provisions that limit who can be detained, questioned or investigated at the request of federal immigration agents. Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens has voiced strong opposition to it.

Nelson said he took a look at the federal lawsuit by U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions and introduced his proposal after fellow Supervisor Michelle Steel added a proposed resolution to the board’s agenda.

Steel’s resolution states that “it is impossible to honor our oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States” and be simultaneously in compliance with California laws.

Leaders in Yorba Linda also voted this week to send a supporting amicus brief.

“It’s kind of a little unusual that we would do that kind of thing,” Yorba Linda Mayor Gene Hernandez said at his council meeting on Tuesday. But he described the move as “necessary,” because the state’s new laws have “gone so far afield; (there’s) a total disdain for (federal) law.”

Other Orange County cities where officials are considering taking some action to express their displeasure with Sacramento’s liberal stance on illegal immigration include Buena Park, Huntington Beach, Aliso Viejo and Fountain Valley.

lmao of course Orange County. Heard my co-workers talk about it this morning

 

[MadSquabbles500]

I guess it true OC is more conservative or right wing than LA. I wonder if North County area of SD County will follow suit.

I guess it true OC is more conservative or right wing than LA.

People in OC are mostly center-left and center-right, which means it is significantly more sane than the posers in LA, and the polar opposite from the crazy loons in San Francisco.

Out of all the insane California laws ever discussed in the WR, you can be sure that none of them are/were proposed by OC lawmakers.

I wonder if North County area of SD County will follow suit.

Hard to say. SD used to be normal, but their sanity is now in doubt after they joined forces with SF to produce quite possibly one of the most outrageous CA law of this decade.

Orange County is the only white area left in L.A.

OC's not in LA. It also depends where you go. South OC is majority white. North OC besides areas like Brea and Yorba Linda are becoming increasingly non-white.

I know it's not in L.A. but it's close enough just like Palmdale isn't in L.A. but it's still part of the L.A. map, Orange county is still part of the L.A. statistical map while still being it's own county just like Riverside county is.

Not even remotely close.

More importantly, your wildly-inaccurate off-tangent angle on LA demographics doesn't seem to have any relevancy to the current discussion on OC.

No you seem to be confused or obviously know next to nothing. The areas in your little wikipedia link make up about 8% of L.A.'s total population put together. Those are very small communities of wealthy homes and low amount of residence. If were going to pretend to be wikipedia scholars let me drop a little wiki linky on you


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Los_Angeles#Race,_ethnicity,_and_national_origin

The dots in red represent "whites" which includes basically everyone who looks white including white hispanics lumped in together. The true number of whites is closer to 28%


Little dimwit

You’re Asian or middle eastern aren’t you

So many Asians in Orange County

Lmao. Wrong

 

[Revolver]

[RockstarChris]

good strategy, if the Dems keep bringing in Mexicans to kill us all, they will have the votes

 

[CubicleGangster]

Orange County is the only white area left in L.A.

Um, no

 

[milkmandanl]

Because I feel as long as people do not commit crimes and have been honest members of our society I'm 100% for amnesty and a pathway to citizenship.

Agreed and would add if the only law they broke was being illegal and misdemeanor crimes.

Orange County to join fight against California sanctuary law
By AMY TAXIN, ASSOCIATED PRESS | Mar 28, 2018

David Hernandez, left, Genevieve Peters, center, and Jennifer Martinez celebrate after the Orange County Board of Supervisors voted to join the U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit against the State of California's sanctuary cities law (SB54) during their meeting in Santa Ana, Calif., Tuesday, March 27, 2018. ​

California and its Democratic-controlled Legislature have built a reputation for leading resistance against the Trump administration's illegal-immigration crackdown.

But at the local level, there's a backlash brewing.

On Tuesday, the Orange County Board of Supervisors voted to condemn the state's sanctuary law and join a U.S. Justice Department lawsuit that contends it's unconstitutional.

The law, Senate Bill 54, limits police cooperation with federal immigration authorities. It's a capstone of the effort by Gov. Jerry Brown, legislators and mayors of the largest cities in the state to resist stepped-up efforts to deport people in the country illegally and to stop President Donald Trump from building a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico.

The Justice Department welcomed Orange County's decision and Trump blasted the state's law on Twitter.

"My Administration stands in solidarity with the brave citizens in Orange County defending their rights against California's illegal and unconstitutional Sanctuary policies," he posted Wednesday.

Orange County, home to 3.2 million people, including hundreds of thousands of immigrants, has seen its decades-long reputation as a conservative GOP base erode in recent years. Hillary Clinton won more votes than Trump in the county in the 2016 election.

But on Tuesday its Board of Supervisors voted 4-0 to join the federal lawsuit filed earlier this month against SB 54 and two other pro-illegal immigrant state laws.

Supervisor Michelle Steel, an immigrant from South Korea, told the crowd that fixing the country's immigration system will take time.

"Along the way, law enforcement should absolutely cooperate fully within the constraints of federal law," she said.

The county also moved this week to improve communication with federal immigration agents by publishing the release dates of inmates online. The Sheriff's Department used to screen inmates in the county's jails to help Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents identify those subject to deportation but had to stop when the state law passed.

Orange County votes to join feds to oppose California's 'sanctuary' law
By Madison Park, CNN | March 28, 2018​

The Orange County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday in a closed-door session to join the federal government in a lawsuit against California over the state law that went into effect in January.

Earlier this month, US Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced a lawsuit over California's sanctuary policies in an escalating battle between the Trump administration and the Golden State. The lawsuit is over parts of three California laws that are intended to protect undocumented immigrants from federal immigration officials.

Kevin de Leόn, author of SB 54 who is now running for US Senate, tweeted in response to the Orange County vote: "While California as a whole may be progressive, repeated attacks on hardworking immigrants to portray them as criminals are a stain on California's history. The people of Orange County deserve better."



Orange County is the third most-populous county in California, with an estimated 3.2 million residents. Parts of the county are red, and surrounded by blue areas such as Los Angeles to its north.

The Orange County Sheriff's Department is also defying the state law by making its inmate release dates public through an online database.

SB 54 had placed restrictions onlocal law enforcement's abilityto communicate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but the law doesn't limit information that's available to the public, the department said in a statement.

The agency announced that the public posting was to "enhance communication between the Sheriff's Department and our law enforcement partners to remove dangerous offenders from our community."
