Reject withholding funds from sanctuary cities, uphold civil liberties.

The proposed legislation to withhold federal funds from so-called "sanctuary jurisdictions" raises serious concerns about civil liberties, states' rights, and the well-being of legal residents. Denying vital resources intended to benefit lawful residents due to policy disagreements with federal immigration enforcement is an overreach that could have devastating humanitarian consequences. We should be working to uphold constitutional principles, foster trust between communities and law enforcement, and ensure access to essential services for all citizens regardless of locality. Coercing compliance through financial threats sets a troubling precedent and undermines our democratic values. I urge you to consider these concerns and prioritize ethical, compassionate solutions that bring people together rather than driving them further apart.
