Legal Rebellion in Michigan Over Refugees Could Help Trump Win State

Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson intends to file an injunction calling for a temporary ban on the resettlement of all refugees in his Michigan county.

Patterson broke the news on the Frank Beckmann Show, on WJR radio in Detroit.

“I’ve brought in my legal team from the county, and we’re about to sue them [the federal government] to get an injunction to stop them from relocating more people into this community until the rules are adhered to,” Patterson told Beckmann.

“The federal law could not be more specific,” Patterson continued.

“It wasn’t you [the federal government] may want to inform local county officials” about resettling refugees in their jurisdiction, the county executive added. “It says you shall inform the local county officials.” (emphasis added)
