‘Sanctuary cities’ vow to protect
immigrants from Trump plan
Mayors push
back on threat
By GENE JOHNSON
Associated Press
SEATTLE — Democratic
mayors of major U.S. cities
that have long had cool rela-
tionships with federal immigra-
tion offi cials say they will do
all they can to protect residents
from deportation, despite Pres-
ident-elect Donald Trump’s
vows to withhold potentially
millions of dollars in taxpayer
money if they do not cooperate.
Seattle’s Ed Murray, Port-
land’s Ted Wheeler, New York
City’s Bill de Blasio and Chica-
go’s Rahm Emanuel are among
those in “sanctuary cities” that
have tried to soothe worried
immigrant populations.
“Seattle has always been
a welcoming city,” Murray
said. “The last thing I want is
for us to start turning on our
neighbors.”
Mayor-elect Wheeler told
Oregon Public Broadcasting’s
“All Things Considered” that
he’s making a statement of the
city’s values.
“We’re saying that we’re
willing to sacrifi ce those dol-
lars and we are willing to live
with whatever consequences
may come our way,” Wheeler
said. “But we will not sacri-
fi ce or take one step backwards
U.S. Coast Guard
An MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter from U.S. Coast Guard
Sector Columbia River flew over the Nenita, a bulk car-
rier laden with grain that ran aground Saturday morn-
ing in the Columbia River near Skamokawa, Washing-
ton. No injuries or pollution was reported.
Vessel grounded,
ordered to port
by Coast Guard
and less than 300,000 gallons
of fuel, was headed outbound
on the Columbia when it lost
propulsion and ran aground.
The vessel started taking
on water, but the crew found
the break in the forward peak
of the vessel and stopped
the fl ooding. The vessel
was refl oated, inspected and
ordered by the Coast Guard
to Kalama, Washington.
There was no reported
pollution or injuries.

Seattle Mayor Ed Murray, second left, speaks at a post-elec-
tion event of elected officials and community leaders at
City Hall in Seattle last week. Leaders in Seattle, San Fran-
cisco and other so-called “sanctuary cities” say they won’t
change their stance on immigration despite President-elect
Donald Trump’s vows to withhold potentially millions of
dollars in taxpayer money if they don’t cooperate.
from upholding the values that
have been long standing in our
community.”
In Providence, Rhode
Island, Mayor Jorge Elorza,
the son of Guatemalan immi-
grants, said he would continue
a longstanding policy of refus-
ing to hold people charged with
civil infractions for federal
immigration offi cials. New-
ark, New Jersey’s Ras Baraka
echoed that decision, calling
Trump’s rhetoric on immigra-
tion “scary.”
Los Angeles Police Chief
Charlie Beck told the Los
Angeles Times that he’s com-
mitted to a longtime policy
of staying out of immigration
issues. Mayor Eric Garcetti
has backed that up but stopped
short of calling LA a sanctu-
ary city because the term is
“ill-defi ned.”
Philadelphia Mayor Jim
Kenney restored sanctuary sta-
tus when he took offi ce in Janu-
ary and has said the city would
protect its residents.
Promising the end
During the campaign,
Trump gave a speech in which
he promised to “end the sanctu-
ary cities” and said those “that
refuse to cooperate with federal
authorities will not receive tax-
payer dollars.” He blamed such
policies for “so many needless
deaths.”
Trump didn’t elaborate on
his plans for cracking down on
the cities. In a “60 Minutes”
interview last week, he said his
administration’s priority will be
deporting criminals and secur-
ing the border.
But signifi cant questions —
and unease — remain about his
approach to sanctuary cities.
There is no legal defi nition
of the term, which is opposed
by some immigration advo-
cates who say it does not
refl ect that people can still be
deported.
It generally refers to juris-
dictions that don’t cooper-
ate with U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement. That
can mean, for example, that
they don’t notify immigra-
tion offi cials when an undocu-
mented immigrant is about to
be released from custody.
Some cities, like San Fran-
cisco, have long declared them-
selves safe havens for immi-
grants, issuing local ID cards
to allow them to access govern-
ment or other services.
The term also been used
to refer to cities that bar their
employees, including police,
from inquiring about a person’s
immigration status because
crime victims and witnesses
might be less likely to talk to
investigators if they are wor-
ried about being deported.

and winds between 25 mph and 35 mph from the southeast. The
Columbia River Bar was closed to recreational vehicles 20 feet

Boat crews from Station Cape Disappointment responded to
