Syracuse to Remain "Sanctuary City"
Syracuse to Remain "Sanctuary City"
Sharing this one as it brings home something in the national spotlight. While I don't have strong opinion on the topic one way or the other, I operate from a position of "The US was founded by those coming wanting a better life" and acknowledge that without broad immigration, many aspects of the US as we know it simply would not exist.
That being said, it's also important to acknowledge that regardless of how we feel about the topic of immigration, it's important to acknowledge the impact it has on the community - the positives and the negatives, and I encourage those of you with strong opinion on the topic to keep that in mind.
I will throw out there that I agree with Syracuse's mayor in that the term "sanctuary city" is a bit of a loaded term given the dynamics between the city, and local as well as federal law enforcement agencies.
