An Arizona Reader Explains How A City Becomes a “Sanctuary”

Re: Saturday Forum Letter:
Two Arizona Readers Compile A List Of Sanctuary Cities;
Is Your Home Town One of Them?
In your Saturday Forum, you included a letter from
two Arizona activists, Jim Nixon and Laura Leighton, who
listed
Chandler, AZ as a sanctuary city.
Unbelievably, that happened after an effort to carry
out immigration law was thwarted.
In 1997 the
Chandler police conducted a 5-day joint operation
with the then-Immigration and Naturalization Services
and the Border Patrol to clear illegal immigrants from
the city.
In return they got slapped with a
civil rights lawsuit for assuming that Hispanics
speaking Spanish were illegal aliens, causing them to
pay $400,000.
Later, after four investigations of the incident by
various agencies, Chandler adopted
General Order E-17 that prohibits
city police from inquiring about a
suspect’s immigration status in most situations or
from assisting federal authorities from enforcing
immigration law.
Doane, who lives near
Chandler, works evenings in a grocery store. He writes
that he “worries every night if an illegal alien will
one day take his job.”
