The Trump administration filed a lawsuit against Colorado and the City of Denver on May 2 seeking to end state and city policies that impede federal authorities in enforcing immigration laws.
The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, targets multiple state and local laws in Colorado and Denver, known as “sanctuary laws.”
