Blue state county faces backlash after failed vote to scrap 'super sanctuary' policy: 'Fringe Democrats'
Fox News
San Diego County’s “super sanctuary" policy will remain in place for now following a failed vote to scrap it from Republican county officials.
"The people in my district want no part of policies that have contradicted our laws, blocked law enforcement, and gotten innocent Americans killed. Mark these words: Sanctuary policies are going away," Issa, whose district includes part of San Diego County, continued. Cameron Arcand is a politics writer at Fox News Digital in Washington D.C.

The county’s policy further constrains the ability of authorities in San Diego, a border county, to comply with federal law enforcement when it comes to turning over illegal immigrants, and opponents believe the policy opens the door to the county protecting those suspected of serious crimes.
