Becoming a so-called “sanctuary city” is a moral, political and, if President Trump has his way, financial choice. Santa Fe, NM Mayor Javier Gonzales spells out the values behind his hometown’s decision not to co-operate with Federal Immigration authorities, except when a suspect is wanted on felony charges, and why he thinks Trump’s threats are mostly hot air.
