Question

In 2017, the Texas legislature passed and Governor Greg Abbott signed legislation banning so-called sanctuary cities. The new law threatens sheriffs, police chiefs and other officials with jail time and removal from office if they do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities. And it allows police officers — even those on college campuses — to question the immigration status of a person they have arrested or detained, including during routine traffic stops. If you were a member of the legislature, would you have voted for the sanctuary cities measure? Why or why not?

Answer 1

If I were a member of the legislature, I will not vote for this kind of sanctuary city measures. Because the Texas legislature passed the law is not really worthy and it prevents the individual freedom of the public. In any democratic country, the law needs to give freedom to the public not to give any pressure or restrict atmosphere. However, as per the law, the police chefs enquiring about the immigration status later commit to the arrest and detain absolutely these activities are against the protection of human rights.

These activities are not really familiar to the public and absolutely it is against human ethics. The government uses the police officers to protect the common public not for terrify to detain by the questioning of immigration status in cities. If I were the member, I disagreed with this kind of law and I never vote for this one.
