Township Resident Renews Request For ‘Sanctuary City’ Status For Franklin

March 16, 2017 Township Council

Township resident Manijeh Saba asked the Township Council to consider declaring Franklin a “sanctuary city.”

The Township Council is “moving at the right speed” to answer calls for Franklin to join the list of American towns that will not enforce national immigration laws, Mayor Phil Kramer said March 15.

Kramer was responding to Emerson Road resident Manijeh Saba, who asked the Township Council to declare Franklin a “sanctuary city.” Sanctuary cities declare themselves safe for undocumented immigrants, and use no municipal funds to enforce immigration laws, nor do they aid in raids conducted by the Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
