Ohio bill would 'defund sanctuary cities' and penalizes cities for not working with federal officers on immigration enforcement

The article from MSN discusses an Ohio bill that aims to defund sanctuary cities and impose penalties on local governments that do not cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. The legislation, proposed by Republican state lawmakers, would require local law enforcement to comply with requests from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to detain undocumented immigrants. If passed, the bill would cut state funding to cities or counties that do not adhere to these requirements, effectively targeting what are known as "sanctuary cities." Critics argue that this measure could lead to racial profiling and undermine community trust in local police, while supporters believe it's necessary for public safety and to uphold federal immigration laws. The bill reflects a broader national debate on immigration policy and local versus federal authority.
