With this, it looks like the Governor and county leaders are trying to take a measured approach to advocating for progressive ideas like designating the state a "Sanctuary State" or "City" for that matter. While it is nice to see that a measured response to this is being relayed by government leaders, I am sure that Nandita Sharma and others in J-20 and all other progressive organizations out there will just increase pressure on lawmakers by dangling the bag of money they have for "their kind" of politician in the upcoming elections. 

As with the whole immigration ban fight, the slew of "bans" the County Council's are pushing for and Universal Income, all of these are coming out of a desire by politicians for the all mighty campaign dollar - given out by progressive groups - so that they can pad their bank accounts in the upcoming '18 political campaigns. 

In other words, keep your eye on the money - that is what is driving all of this.
