Los Angeles officials vow to fast-track ‘sanctuary city’ law after Trump victory

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass aims to designate the city as a sanctuary for illegal immigrants before President-elect Donald Trump takes office in 2025. The City Council is expected to vote on the proposal soon. This move counters Trump’s tough immigration agenda, which includes mass deportations and border wall construction. California has been a sanctuary state since 2014, and the LA police force already limits cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
