Federal law is supreme over the laws of states or the ordinances of counties, cities and towns.

Fundamental law (the Constitution) provides that only the federal government has jurisdiction over immigration and visitors from foreign nations.

All citizens are required to obey the law and all elected officials are citizens.

By its very nature, a policy of non-cooperation with federal law is obstructionist in nature.

Elected officials who have voted to implement a policy of non-cooperation with federal law with regard to immigration have either corruptly impeded the due and proper administration of federal law or impeded the due and proper exercise of the power of inquiry under 18 U.S. Code Chapter 73 para 1505.

This title allows imprisonment for not more than five years or, if the offense involves international or domestic terrorism (as defined in section 2331), imprisoned not more than eight years, or both.

The Attorney General of the United States should charge each elected official who voted for a local sanctuary policy with obstruction of justice. Further, should investigation reveal that there was collusion among elected officials, each official should be charged with conspiracy to commit obstruction of justice.

Hopefully, when the personal consequences of breaking the law become apparent, our elected officials will obey the law, its intent, and their oaths of office.
