Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger doubled down on turning Virginia into a sanctuary state for illegal aliens if elected governor.
During an event held by the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, Spanberger was asked how she would “continue to support fair, just, civil immigration reforms while ensuring that Virginia remains as welcoming a place as it has always been.”
Spanberger answered by explaining that “Our immigration system is really broken,” and called for Congress and the federal government to “Enact immigration reform in a meaningful way.”
“The administration is choosing to be highly aggressive in the way they react to that broken system, rather than fixing a broken system” Spanberger added. “And, I have been quite clear that I oppose any sort mandates that require localities to, frankly, do the work of ICE officials.”
“Local police should be doing the job of policing in their communities, and that means investigating crimes, doing community policing, ensuring that they are out doing the search warrants and arrest warrants necessary,” Spanberger said.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller labeled Spanberger’s comments “truly repugnant.”
It’s going to get very crowded if it’s also named the official Slavery Restitution State.
if the people of Va let this wacko in hope the state has enough funding to keep all the illegals without government help. You would hope the people will use some common sense
where will they get the money So far not from the government
