LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — Michigan Lawyer Normal Dana Nessel and 19 different attorneys basic are suing the Trump administration for making an attempt to power states to extend immigration enforcement by threatening to withhold federal funding.

In March, the DHS modified the phrases and situations placed on federal funds to require recipients to show that they assisted with imposing these legal guidelines.

Secretary Duffy issued the same letter, stating that grant recipients are required to help the federal government with immigration legislation enforcement.

DOT funds are used for freeway development, public transportation upkeep and aggressive funds for airport and railway growth.

Nessel says state grant candidates have seen the same requirement added to the phrases and situations.

Within the lawsuit towards FEMA, the attorneys basic say the immigration situation exceeds FEMA’s authority. They add that the situations are constitutional as a result of Congress appropriated the funding to assist states put together for, shield towards, reply to and recuperate from disasters.
