President Trump’s Justice Department sent a letter to governor’s of certain sanctuary states, including Oregon Governor Tina Kotek, warning them to stop impeding law enforcement efforts over arresting illegal migrants.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi’s letter read in part,“You are hereby notified that your jurisdiction has been identified as one that engages in sanctuary policies and practices that thwart federal immigration enforcement to the detriment of the interests of the United States. This ends now. By Tuesday, August 19, 2025, please submit a response to this letter that confirms your commitment to complying with federal law and identifies the immediate initiatives you are taking to eliminate laws, policies, and practices that impede federal immigration enforcement,”.
The letter also read, “For too long, so-called sanctuary jurisdiction policies have undermined this necessary cooperation and obstructed federal immigration enforcement, giving aliens cover to perpetrate crimes in our communities and evade the immigration consequences that federal law requires,”
