Amador County Sheriff Gary Redman has announced plans to notify federal immigration authorities when undocumented individuals are arrested, directly challenging California’s sanctuary state law. Enacted in 2017, the law restricts local law enforcement from participating in immigration enforcement. Redman’s decision is poised to test the legal boundaries between state and federal jurisdictions regarding immigration policies. (CalMatters)
