The Birmingham City Council and other officials want to make Birmingham a sanctuary city. At a meeting this week, the council unanimously approved a resolution granting the designation, which has strong support from residents. Not long after the council’s vote, however, Governor Robert Bentley shot the move down, potentially sparking conflict between state and local government officials. Hear more on this latest controversy from Nick Patterson, editor of the weekly newspaper Weld.
