The Sanctuary City policy allows municipalities to limit their cooperation with federal immigration enforcement, creating a safe environment for undocumented immigrants. The significance of this policy lies in its impact on community trust and safety; residents may feel more secure reporting crimes or accessing services without fear of deportation. Advocates argue that sanctuary policies promote human rights and uphold local values, while opponents raise concerns about undocumented immigration and potential legal repercussions. This policy reflects an ongoing national debate about immigration laws, enforcement priorities, and the autonomy of cities in shaping their immigration approaches.
