President Donald Trump’s administration has sued several states and regions allegedly violated the constitution by blocking the enforcement of federal immigration.
Known as sanctuary jurisdictions, these areas have policies or practices that prohibit cooperation with federal authorities in enforcing immigration law. Trump ordered the federal government to prepare for refunds for these locations, but struck the block after multiple jurisdictions filed lawsuits.
