Finally, a voice of reason in the sea of liberalism that is the Golden State.
The city council for a small city in Orange County, California has voted to reject the state’s sanctuary law that limits cooperation between local authorities and federal immigration officials.
The Los Alamitos city council opted out of the sanctuary law with a vote of 4-1, citing the Constitution for their reasoning, a document we weren’t sure still existed in the liberal cesspool of California.
The approved ordinance states the sanctuary law “may be in direct conflict with federal laws and the Constitution,” and not adopting it would make it “impossible to honor our oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Warren Kusumoto, Mayor Pro Tempore of Los Alamitos and the councilman who introduced the ordinance, urged his colleagues to see reason just hours before the vote.
“What I’m suggesting to my colleagues is that we pick the U.S. Constitution over any other conflicting document, and that’s the simple approach I’ve taken on this,” he said.
They sided with the Constitution after all.
Kusumoto added, “We are patriotic, we are a law-abiding community, we’re a small city and we’re just trying to do the best we can given a lot of circumstances that are beyond our control.”
They are one of a very few communities in California that are patriotic and law-abiding when it comes to illegal immigration.

At the heart of the Los Alamitos objection to California’s sanctuary law is a bill known as SB 54, which makes it a crime for business owners to voluntarily help federal agents find and detain illegals.
Earlier this year, state Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced that his office would prosecute employers – legal, hard-working Americans – should they assist federal authorities in cracking down on illegal immigration.

California’s leading legal authority has chosen to side with law-breakers, while a small city has sided with the Constitution.
Everything in California is backward, but Los Alamitos is providing at least a glimmer of hope.
