Now, some Maryland lawmakers are responding to Trump’s order, with two new bills aimed at limiting how much state and local resources can be used during the enforcement of immigration laws.
“You can’t deputize law enforcement officials to enforce immigration law like through stopping, arresting or searching or detaining an individual simply to find out their immigration or citizenship status,” said Del. Maricé Morales, D-Montgomery County, who introduced a house version of the “Trust Act” bill.
Morales said her bill and a twin bill in the state Senate — as law — would prevent police officers from questioning victims and those arrested about their citizenship or place of birth. The legislation also would bar officers from assisting in immigration enforcement operations in the communities they serve.

Pretty clear to anybody paying attention that trying to play the sanctuary card will get you and your state/city/town/etc financially trumped!
"Maricé Morales". Her name says it all. She is here in America, with an American job with the American government and she wants to take care of these illegals? She sees them as HER people, not us. Time to vote this scum bag out at the next election.
