Should not only be withdrawing Federal money from the States but it does not include Colleges and other businesses. All Federal tax dollars flowing into a sanctuary city / state for any means should be eliminated ASAP. This includes MD for those who do not realize MD is a sanctuary state, including some counties and cities / towns.

Since everyone is supposed to be covered by health insurance, illegals cannot get obamacare insurance, so if you visit the ER and don't have insurance they should be required to call the ICEman! By the time their treatment is finished, they can be hauled away and deported...if they come back again, it's off to jail!
