The grant program at issue provides around $250 million a year to help fund investigative task forces, improve 911 call systems and crime laboratories, and reduce gang violence in prison. Wednesday's ruling says the law setting up the grant program gives the attorney general authority to set the conditions for qualifying to receive the money.
While the Trump administration, beginning under then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions, accelerated the fight over federal aid to sanctuary cities, the lack of cooperation with immigration agents has been a subject of bipartisan concern. The Obama administration said cities and states must comply with the law about information sharing to qualify for the grants.
The crackdown under Sessions, the Second Circuit said, put into effect"the same condition announced by DOJ under the preceding, Democratic administration." But the Trump administration's tougher line on immigration has sparked several legal battles, still ongoing, over the obligation of cities and states to cooperate.
Vote Trump out of office, in 2020 and that would be one of the best decisions you made, in 2020.

Further evidence of the capitulation of the APPEALS COURT SYSTEM and the DOJ to the vile corruption being promulgated and practiced by Barr for Trump. ONE LAW FOR TRUMP and NO JUSTICE. FOR ANYONE ELSE. DESPICABLE AND CONTEMPTIBLE.
Perhaps people need to start withholding taxes
Hey Gavin! Guess what? 😂😂😂

If this stands, it further demonstrates the POTUS has entirely too much power for any one person. Who knew that all this time we were relying solely on the good graces and integrity of the holder of the office to keep US from from sliding into a tyrannical abyss?!

I think it's time for those states that are progressive and forward thinking to seriously consider leaving the union. The west coast alone would be the 5th largest economy in the world. You add in the northeast, we would move up even higher.
