Back to EpisodesMontana AG Threatens Helena Over Immigration Resolution
Description
Montanas Attorney General, Austin Knudsen, is threatening Helena with a lawsuit over a resolution limiting local police cooperation with federal immigration agents, citing a state law banning sanctuary policies. The resolution was passed in January after federal agents detained a Mexican man during a traffic stop, sparking community advocacy. Residents are divided, with some supporting the citys stance and others worrying about funding and legal battles. Knudsen has extended a cease-and-desist order, and a special city meeting is scheduled to discuss potential changes. Mayors in other cities are watching closely, as Helenas decision could set a precedent for statewide immigration policies.
