- The city of San Francisco and nearby Santa Clara County sued President Donald Trump’s administration on Tuesday, seeking to block a new rule that would drastically reduce legal immigration by denying visas to poor migrants.
“This illegal rule is just another attempt to vilify immigrants,” San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera said in a statement. Trump has made efforts to curb both legal and illegal immigration, an issue he has made a cornerstone of his presidency and one that he has stressed again as the campaign for the 2020 presidential election heats up.
“The final rule will worsen the health and well-being of the counties’ residents, increase risks to the public health, undermine the counties’ health and safety-net systems, and inflict significant financial harm,” the suit said.
San Francisco cares more about ILLEGAL ALIENS than AMERICAN CITIZENS. SF officials leave their citizens to die on the sidewalks in their own waste from drug overdoses, but fight tooth and nail to protect illegals who do nothing but commit crime and take our tax money. TREASON
What the fuck does Santa Clara or Sf get from suing the administration? Wasting more taxpayer money
boo hoo hoo. The laws are in place, and we have a president who follows the laws of the land. But go ahead, use your funding to sue, and go broke.
With 325 Million people now and a national debt that's consuming us, maybe for the our own survival , we should slow it down a little? After all, compared with the rest of the world, our foreign born numbers are HUGE! Don't believe it? Look at the chart below...
Considering San Francisco is littered with homeless, exactly how do they plan on caring for all of these newcomers who will become a public charge?
Quite the spin, by “poor migrants” Reuters means migrants that would require welfare, migrants that can’t care for themselves or their families and would require a handout. Merit based immigration is common sense and has my full support
Politics You mean they filed paperwork in a lawsuit & overall goal to sue the Administration over a new rule to limit green cards and welfare to non-Americans. People who are Americans and desperately need welfare can't get it. Yet we allow non Americans to have it? We need 'REFORM'.
Merit system. Just like every other country except USA
Once again choosing illegals over legal residents who don’t collect welfare or get free medical but pay taxes to import welfare abusers . Take care of your own house , SF stands for Subsidizing Foreigners
How many times have we heard the immigrant’s story...he came to this country with only $2 or $5 in his pocket & only the clothes on his back...? Then you hear how he or she made something of him/herself! How can we predict success?!
Lol
Maybe San Francisco should worry about it’s American citizen homeless crisis and deal with that before bringing more people in to defecate on the streets.
Why don't they just offer to pick up the tab?
