We’re all seeking sanctuary
Peter Funt
Lawmakers in this rural corner of Tennessee near Knoxville passed an interesting resolution the other night, making Blount County a sanctuary. Sanctuary municipalities are generally places where local law enforcement agencies decline to furnish information about undocumented immigrants to federal authorities. President Trump vehemently opposes such policies and has threatened action, such as withholding federal funds, to punish offending jurisdictions.
