ARE WE NOW A 'SANCTUARY' NATION?
Center For Immigration Studies, Update on Sanctuary JurisdictionsBy Jessica Vaughan, January 7, 2016
In the absence of federal action, sanctuary jurisdictions remain as a significant public safety problem throughout the country. These policies have resulted in the release of more than 10,000 criminal aliens that ICE was trying to deport, allowing these offenders to remain in the community and commit more crimes. In addition, these policies obstruct vital communication between local and federal law enforcement agencies, and interfere with ICE's ability to enforce immigration laws.
Across the U.S., there are over 300 cities, counties, and states that are considered
"Sanctuary Cities". These jurisdictions protect criminal aliens from deportation by refusing to comply with ICE detainers or otherwise impede open communication and information exchanges between their employees or officers and federal immigration agents.

Invasion USA -- 'Astonishing' Crime Stats For Illegal Aliens
Senator Grassley says he's heard from one whistleblower after another inside ICE claiming they're told not to do their job. Grassley reports they're instructed: ignore the laws, just do everything you can to have people that ought to be deported be able to stay in this country.
“Full Measure” spoke to an ICE agent, who asked not to be identified for fear of losing his job, who said: “We have to sit back and watch people die. And that's not an exaggeration. We have Kate Steinle that was killed. That happens every day.
