白宫严厉抨击美国一名联邦法官做出的裁决，该裁决阻止川普总统的有关指令，扣留那些限制本地与联邦移民当局合作的所谓移民庇护城市管辖地区获得联邦拨款。
白宫星期二晚间在一份声明中说，“旧金山和类似城市把犯罪外国人的福祉，置于我们美国公民的安全利益之上。制定这些政策的城市官员手上沾着死去的美国人的鲜血。”
白宫做出反应的数小时之前，美国地区联邦法官奥里克做出临时裁决，该裁决在针对川普行政令当中的一个条款所涉及的法律诉讼法院审理过程中将一直有效。今年1月25日川普总统签发行政令，要求扣留对移民庇护城市的联邦拨款。这名法官表示，总统不能对国会已经拨付的款项设定新的条件。
The White House has sharply criticized a U.S. federal judge’s ruling blocking a directive from President Donald Trump to withhold funding from sanctuary jurisdictions – those that limit their cooperation with U.S. immigration agents.
“San Francisco, and cities like it, are putting the well-being of criminal aliens before the safety of our citizens, and those city officials who authored these policies have the blood of dead Americans on their hands,” the White House said in a statement late Tuesday.
The reaction came hours after U.S. District Judge William Orrick issued a temporary ruling that will remain in effect while a lawsuit over a provision in a Trump executive order makes its way through the court. The January 25 executive order called for federal funding to be withheld from sanctuary jurisdictions, and the judge said the president cannot put new conditions on money already allocated by Congress.
