Trump Administration to Cut Off Aid to Springfield After DeWine Visit

Trump Cites 'Sanctuary City' Policies in Decision

Move Follows Similar Cuts to Other Cities, States

The Trump administration is cutting off federal funding to Springfield, Ohio, after Governor Mike DeWine visited the city and met with Haitian community leaders. The move follows similar cuts to other cities and states that have adopted "sanctuary city" policies, which limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities. The decision to cut off funding to Springfield was announced by the Department of Justice on Tuesday. In a statement, the department said that the city's "sanctuary city" policies "undermine the rule of law and create a magnet for illegal immigration." The Trump administration has been cracking down on "sanctuary cities" since Trump took office in 2017. The administration has argued that these policies make it more difficult to enforce immigration laws and protect public safety. Critics of the administration's policies say that they are discriminatory and harmful to immigrant communities. They argue that "sanctuary city" policies actually make communities safer by fostering trust between law enforcement and immigrant residents. The decision to cut off funding to Springfield is likely to have a significant impact on the city. The city receives millions of dollars in federal funding each year, which is used to support a variety of programs and services. The Trump administration has also cut off funding to other cities and states that have adopted "sanctuary city" policies. In 2017, the administration cut off funding to the city of Berkeley, California, and the state of California. The administration's crackdown on "sanctuary cities" is part of a broader effort to restrict immigration. The administration has also implemented a travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, and has separated thousands of children from their parents at the border. The Trump administration's policies have been met with widespread criticism from Democrats and immigration advocates. They argue that the policies are cruel, inhumane, and discriminatory.
