Respecting and enforcing the law, including criminal immigration law, is at the core of the Department of Justice’s mission.  Unfortunately, some state and local jurisdictions are attempting to impede or frustrate the Federal Government’s efforts, by enacting “sanctuary policies.”  The terms “sanctuary city” and “sanctuary jurisdiction” are not proper legal terms and actually have no consensus definitions.  Generally, a jurisdiction is considered to have “sanctuary policies” when the jurisdiction prevents or limits state and local law enforcement from working with their federal partners in some way.  While these policies vary widely in substance and scope, at a minimum, most limit the sharing of certain information between state and local police and federal law enforcement authorities.
