"Supporters of the Trust Act, including its sponsor Councilor-at-large Moises Rodrigues, said the proposal is simply about opening up the lines of communication between the local immigrant community and the Brockton Police Department. Rodrigues said, as a practical matter, Brockton police have not been detaining undocumented immigrants in the first place, but that the Trust Act would instill confidence as a "feel-good" policy.
Ward 2 Councilor Thomas Monahan made a motion during the meeting on Tuesday that the vote on the Trust Act be delayed until next year, at the request of Rodrigues, so that more information can be compiled. Monahan previously said that the presidential election, given Trump's position on illegal immigration, was among several factors that has given the council pause on the decision. Ward 7 Councilor Shirley Asack was the lone dissenter on the five-person ordinance committee who called for a vote to be held on Tuesday night. "I feel that we need to act on this this evening," Asack said during the meeting. "I feel that nothing has changed due to the election of president. And I feel that the city, our constituents, need to know where we stand."

The CC never vote for us. They vote with them in mind only.
There should be no delays on something so plain and simple. There has
been plenty of time to think this out. Who is protecting who?

I don’t care who you are or where you came from. The law is the law! This corruption has to stop and the CC has to stop making up their own laws. It’s also time for them to start working for US and not themselves.
Frankly I’m tired of illegals robbing our welfare system and committing crime. I certainly don’t stand alone on this either. People are too afraid to open their mouth.

As of Saturday, Clinton had received 63,390,669 votes, while Trump received 61,820,845 votes -- a difference of 1,569,824, according to The AP. Rounded off to whole numbers, that translates to 48 percent vs. 47 percent.
The Brockton CC/and the Mayor need to not pass the Trust City Act. Not because Trump is the PresElect but because it's not the right thing for ALL the Taxpaying Citizens of Brockton. No matter who one voted for.

"Bulletproof vests for 20 Lawrence police officers. Sidewalk ramps for wheelchair users in Northampton. Fuel aid for struggling Cambridge residents this winter.City officials across Massachusetts say these are the types of services that would be affected if President-elect Donald Trump carries out his threat to cut millions in federal dollars from cities that limit their cooperation with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “He’s going to have to hurt a lot of people to make a political point,” said Lawrence Mayor Daniel Rivera, whose mostly Latino city receives $36 million a year in federal funding, in addition to a budget of $260 million. “And his time would be better spent fixing immigration. Which is what everybody wants him to do.”
"On the campaign trail, Trump criticized cities and towns that refuse toturn over unauthorized immigrants they arrest for any crime to ICE. Trump calls them “sanctuary cities” and says they obstruct immigration enforcement. Federal officials have said there are more than 200 municipalities, including Boston and about nine others in Massachusetts, that refuse to cooperate with ICE in some way."
