Springfield, instead, has a “welcoming city” ordinance that looks a whole lot like a sanctuary city rule — primarily prohibiting city police from cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations that have ramped up under President Donald J. Trump. He made a campaign vow to clamp down on undocumented immigrants.

The Trump administration on Thursday named counties and cities in more than 30 states, including New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and Seattle, as sanctuary jurisdictions it could go after for not complying with federal immigration laws.

President Trump's executive order to crack down on sanctuary policies names three dozen cities around New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
