SF in the Immigration News Again!

By immigrationprof

Earlier this month — after a summer of contrioversy, we learned that a grand jury was reviewing the legality of the San Francisco “sanctuary” policy.  Now, the San Francisco Chronicle reports that a Superior Court judge ruled yesterday that the city’s plan to issue municipal identification cards to residents regardless of immigration status does not violate state and federal law. Judge Peter Busch tossed out a lawsuit filed by the Immigration Reform Law Institute claiming that the program would amount to aiding and abetting illegal immigration.
