SALEM -- "We will not retreat," vowed Gov. Kate Brown on Thursday, issuing an executive order that forbids all state agencies and employees from helping federal immigration officials locate or apprehend undocumented immigrants.

Though Oregon law already forbids state and local law enforcement agencies from using public resources to find or arrest those whose only crime is being in the country without proper documentation, Brown's order goes a step further in solidifying the state's sanctuary status by expanding the law to all agencies.

The governor's order also forbids state agencies from using public resources from helping to create a religious registry, and makes it illegal for state agencies to discriminate based on immigration status.

Brown also asked Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum to "explore legal remedies" available to "resist" Trump's travel ban in court.

Last month, Oregon was left off an early list of priority infrastructure projects to receive federal funding.

Trump just signed an EO turning Crater Lake into the nation's nuclear waste dump.
 
Just waiting for the EO making all federal grants go poof for states and cities ignoring federal immigration laws. You know it's coming.
 
My green card says Bimart on the bottom but that guy at the Home Depot said it's totally legit.

Wonder how far it'll go when she's reminded that pot is still a federally controlled substance and illegal to possess, cultivate and sell? And that $20+ million you took in from taxing it last year? Nope. :smiley-pat:

That only works for the states that get back more from the feds than they pay in.

What's so freakin' stupid about the illegal immigration issue is that it would take about two minutes for reasonable representatives from both sides to forge a deal that would resolve it:

We've got 11 million or so undocumented people here and there's no reasonable way to think that we're ever going to deport them. Give them permanent resident status and green cards so they can work and pay taxes. They go to the end of the line to gain citizenship. In exchange, there's a realistic effort to control the borders by whatever are the most effective means and we establish an e-verify system to prevent people without proper documents from getting jobs. We put the screws to any employers who violate the law.

Damn! What's so hard about this thing?

Exactly. Deporting people is a waste of time. Make it impossible for them to make a living, find housing, drive, etc. and they will leave. It's that simple.

Been there, done that, Reagan.

It crushed the unions and gave us the slave wages we have today.
 
They'd better hope that Gorsuch isn't confirmed because I can't see that action surviving a Supreme Court challenge unless the 4-4 gridlock remains. The tax man always wins.

What makes you think that would go to the supreme court? If you nuke California Trump does win the popular vote.

Not the same thing because they didn't do squat to close the border (hence 11 million new "visitors") or to crack down on employment of undocumented people.
 
Fascist Kate is deliberately trying to incite gun violence, just as she did with her paranoid but successful shrieking for the Feds to move with force on the Malheur occupiers.

Lib mobs riot and beat people almost daily in Portland and she continues to root for them and ignore their crimes, hoping it will incite gun violence.

Meanwhile she shut down the only mental health facility on the coast in hopes to incite gun violence.

Losing Fed funds for infrastructure will cripple our economy, and she hopes it will incite gun violence.

She is setting this state up for a lot of pain in order to serve her master Michael Bloomberg.
 
She reminds me a lot of terrorist Janet Reno, who burned 76 men, women and children to death on national TV so people wouldn't think "she wasn't as tough as a man".
