We have had sanctuary states and cities for years that have said they will defy federal law on immigration. The president has been set.

Unlike cannabis and immigration status, there’s a real constitutional amendment involved. I’m interested in the arguments that somehow treat the three of these differently. (Pro-cannabis-choice, anti-immigration-hypocrisy here.)

I don’t believe there is anything that requires states to cooperate with federal law enforcement. On the other hand, they can’t interfere with federal law enforcement either. So the feds can certainly try to go after any immigration, drug, or gun law violations if they choose to, regardless of what state law says. It just comes down to how they want to use their resources.

That precedent is called the 10th Amendment. And it didn't have anything to do with sanctuary whatevers.

Interesting typo--president. I think you meant precedent.
