VIDEO Letter hand delivered to Upland mayor - asking the city council to sign onto Attorney General Jeff Sessions' California Sanctuary State Law amicus brief and to support a resolution opposing the Sanctuary State Law. Cities that sign onto the amicus brief must do so by April 6, 2018.
If you would like to ask your city council to oppose the Sanctuary State Law, below is a sample letter and info that Arthur Schaper has been presenting to cities.
City of [CITY] Agenda Report Date: Ordinance Item No.: To: Mayor & Members of the City Council Via: City Manager From: Subject: Introduce Ordinance Adding Chapter X Constitution of the United States Compliance
Summary: This is an opportunity to discuss the Council’s desire to show its resolve and support for the Constitution of the United States by adopting a Resolution or Ordinance.
Recommendations:
1. Introduce for first reading, read by title only, and waive further reading of Ordinance No. X; and, 2. Title of Ordinance: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF [CITY], CALIFORNIA: CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES COMPLIANCE.”
Background and Discussion
The California Values Act (SB54) is contrary to the United States Constitution and infringes on the rights of the citizens of the City of [CITY]. Furthermore, it affects the City Council’s oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. In view of this contradiction, it is impossible to comply with both the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of California. When two governing documents contradict each other, the order of precedence needs to be invoked and followed.
In this situation, my belief is that the Constitution of the United States has precedence over the Constitution of the State of California, so therefore I am proposing that the City Council discuss and adopt Ordinance No. 2018-03 to exempt the City of [CITY] from the California Values Act.
