The Facts

• The administration of Los Angeles, the second most populated US city and home to 1.3 migrants, Tuesday passed a "sanctuary city" ordinance to protect migrants. It prohibits using city resources to enforce federal immigration laws.

• Voted for 13-0, it codifies immigrant protection in the city's municipal law. Los Angeles was declared a “city of sanctuary” during President-elect Donald Trump’s first term but only through a resolution and an executive order.
