The Small Business Administration (SBA) said it will move several offices from cities with sanctuary policies for illegal immigrants as part of a broader Trump administration effort to stem illegal immigration.

In a statement last week, SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler said that offices in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver, New York City, and Seattle will be moved to “more accessible locations that better serve the small business community and comply with federal immigration law,” which she said will be “less costly” overall.
