Reynolds signs sanctuary bill in private

[rurallib]

from CCI action:

Governor Kim Reynolds signed Senate File 481, the bad so-called sanctuary cities bill, into law behind closed doors and without comment.

The fact that she did it in secret, when a couple of months ago she publicly declared her support for this bad bill in a fundraising email, is a testiment to your pushback.

Tonight - we stand vigil as a show of strength and resiliency on the west steps of the State Capitol at 7 pm. Bring a candle. Bring a friend. Details and RSVP on Facebook.

For an Iowa that puts people before politics,

Madeline Cano,
Organizer

government behind locked doors is always bad policy

1. I'm going to move out of Iowa.

I'm done.

On Tuesday, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed SF 481, the so-called “sanctuary cities bill,” into law. Reynolds didn’t issue a statement — the reference to SF 481 was buried in a press release announcing the governor signed 17 bills on April 10 — but two months ago, she hailed the bill as a way to “send a message to the far-left liberals in Des Moines and Iowa City.”

That statement came in a fundraising letter from Reynolds’ gubernatorial campaign, attempting to use misplaced fears about sanctuary cities — which even proponents of the bill admit don’t exist in Iowa — to pry open the wallets of Iowans.
