City/County Politicians' Lawlessness Regarding Sanctuary for Illegals Borders On Treason

Openly aiding and abetting not just illegals, but illegal criminals as well. One Sterling Example:
Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel is issuing IDs to illegals so they can collect welfare without being tracked by the feds

Openly, flagrantly violating federal law, Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel is issuing an official Chicago ID, the purpose of which is to allow illegal aliens to receive welfare benefits without being tracked for deportation.

In my opinion, not only should federal funding be withheld from Chicago, but Emanuel should be held personally responsible for all welfare payments given to illegals with these new IDs.


The new program was unveiled at a Chicago City Council meeting on Wednesday, and it protects illegal aliens from federal oversight by not collecting any copies of identification documents presented when illegals apply for the identification card, reports Breitbart.

“Applicants bring in the documents to prove someone’s identity. They hand them over to specially trained individual who can review the documents and then hand them back … It’s going to capture just the name and the date of birth. It’s not going to capture an address,” a source close to those officials told the Chicago Sun-Times.


Emanuel, once President Barack Obama’s Chief of Staff, has been one of the loudestvoicesdecrying Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s efforts to cut off federal funding for sanctuary cities like Chicago that refuse to cooperate in the enforcement of immigration laws.

The “Municipal ID” plan is Emanuel’s latest bid to resist the effort of the Justice Department and remain what he has called a “welcoming city.” Emanuel’s new City Clerk Anna Valencia’s website describes the Municipal ID as “an optional, valid, government-issued ID that they can then use to access a range of services from both the private and public sectors. ”

In addition to ensuring access for illegals to government programs, the Clerk’s Office also claims to be “working with cultural institutions, sports teams, pharmacies, local chambers of commerce and community organizations to explore potential discounts and partnerships.”
 

The scheme is specifically designed not only to allow illegals to obtain the cards, but to avoid collecting data that could be used by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to discover aliens in the country illegally. Chicago is apparently looking to a model pioneered in San Francisco to frustrate ICE efforts.
