The U.S. Justice Department yesterday ramped up efforts to crack down on so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions, threatening to subpoena the state of California as well as San Francisco, Berkeley and other localities for documents related to their immigration enforcement policies. We’ll talk with Sacramento Bee reporter Anita Chabria about Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ subpoena threat and other recent immigration news, including President Trump’s comments yesterday that he is open to a path to citizenship for Dreamers, undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children.
