The move comes just before Trump&#8217;s 100th day in office.<\/p>\n<p>This action follows a recent legal setback where a federal judge ruled that Trump cannot deny federal funds to jurisdictions based on their immigration policies. The judge emphasized that the administration does not have the authority to withhold funds without clear justification. Despite this, the Trump administration plans to appeal the ruling and is actively pursuing legal challenges against individual sanctuary policies, such as that of Rochester, New york, which it claims obstruct federal immigration efforts. <\/p>\n<p>During a press briefing, white House officials reinforced that the administration&#8217;s focus is on public safety and national security, emphasizing the obligation of local officials to support enforcement of immigration laws. as Trump approaches his milestone, he is intensifying his fight against sanctuary cities, highlighting the administration&#8217;s commitment to stricter immigration policies.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump to sign executive order cracking down on sanctuary cities<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2106142\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> is expected to sign an executive order Monday afternoon, cracking down on Democratic-led <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/sanctuary-cities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">sanctuary cities<\/a> as he approaches his 100th day in office.<\/p>\n<p>The order will direct Attorney General <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/pam-bondi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Pam Bondi<\/a> and Homeland Security Secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kristi-noem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Kristi Noem<\/a> to create a list of the cities and states not complying with Trump&rsquo;s effort to deport immigrants who are in the United States illegally.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3393113\/trump-first-100-days-interview-jeffrey-goldberg-the-atlantic-signalgate\/\">Trump boasts less fearful first 100 days than first administration: &lsquo;I run the country and the world&rsquo;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3393234\/frustrated-trump-putin-zelensky-ceasefire-deal-russia-ukraine\/\">Trump &#8216;frustrated&#8217;
