Federal funds toy jurisdiction that refuses to crack down on undocumented immigrants. You should be concerned about the fact that we have a president that is trying to unilaterally use federal funds to essentially extort jur jurisdictions to make them do his bidding. Reporter the county filed this 26page lawsuit against the president to challenge his order. At risk is 1. 7 billion in federal money, much used to fund the Medical Center and the Public Health programs. It would be the equivalent of cutting somewhere between 25 to 30 35 of your employees.
