The Sanctuary City Elimination Act aims to enhance cooperation between state and local law enforcement agencies and federal immigration officials, addressing concerns about violent criminals and suspected terrorists who are in the U.S. illegally. The legislation seeks to ensure that local authorities can assist federal immigration enforcement without facing legal repercussions, thereby promoting public safety. Key provisions of the Act empower state and local law enforcement to act as agents of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) when complying with immigration detainers.
