Awesome news.

It is about time. I know that Mayor Garcetta of LA caters to illegals and even offers up tax payer money to fight for them to stay.

Just envision the howls (and the outrage from the media) when the first such action is taken.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

The title of the article is misleading.

 

The first paragraph says :

 

"Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen confirmed Tuesday that her department has asked federal prosecutors to see if they can lodge criminal charges against sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with federal deportation efforts"

 

Not quite the same thing as  preparing to arrest/ charging people.

Pretty close.

 

About time they were held accountable.

Not really, there's quite a few steps between considering charges and charging someone. 

 

You probably won't see convictions for a good while. 

 

Not sure anyone is expecting instant justice, but at least a step in the right direction.

Agreed, and it could make these local leaders think twice about their decisions and actions.

The thread title is much more dramatic than the actual situation, so maybe people are expecting a quick justice. 

Is there anything in Justice or Immigration that is either quick or immediate?

I think anybody who has lived in the US for more than 10 minutes knows that is unlikely.

I think there is a report button for that.  You can ask a moderator to clarify the thread title.

I think it has to be the title from the website you posted from. Altering titles is frowned upon.
