California started 2018 by officially becoming a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants. Gov. Jerry Brown signed SB-54 last year, which restricts cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities.

The law is not popular with law enforcement officers, but Brown said it will bring a “measure of comfort” to illegal aliens who are afraid of being deported.
