Abstract

The article discusses the constitutional showdown between the federal government and sanctuary cities over immigration policies. The Supremacy Clause mandates that federal law is supreme, but the extent to which states can resist federal immigration enforcement remains unclear. The courts will likely have to determine the balance between federal authority and state autonomy in this contentious issue. The article emphasizes the importance of upholding the rule of law and the constitutional hierarchy, even in the face of moral and political conflicts. [Extracted from the article]
