Florida closer to ban on ‘sanctuary cities’ as Trump talks of sending migrants to them

So-called sanctuary cities have been a target of President Donald Trump since the start of his presidency. He threatened to block federal funding via executive order and has now introduced a new proposal to transport undocumented immigrants from the U.S.-Mexico border to “sanctuary cities” across the country.

While the proposal to send immigrants to cities like San Francisco and Chicago has been rejected twice in the past six months over legal and logistical concerns, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said on Fox News on Sunday that Trump has asked his administration to take another look at the plan.

Trump’s stance on sanctuary cities has also become a key issue for Republicans in Florida, as twin proposals to ban the jurisdictions in Florida make their way to the chamber floors.

The bills — SB 168 and HB 527 — are being heard in committee for the last time this week, and have garnered support from Republican members, leadership and Gov. Ron DeSantis. Amid comments from the president this week, the message has ramped up ahead of a vote. At the Capitol on Wednesday, Floridians for Immigration Enforcement is hosting “angel families” whose family members were killed by immigrants. Meanwhile Democrats in the Legislature and immigrants rights groups continue to speak out.

The American Business Immigrant Coalition recently penned an open letter to leadership against the legislation — a letter backed by more than 120 leaders including Coral Gables Mayor Raúl Valdés-Fauli, former Miami Mayor Manny Diaz and former Miami-Dade County Mayor Alex Penelas. Sen. José Javier Rodríguez, who has been a staunch opponent of the bill, also signed the letter.
