Madison Mayor, City Council Members Oppose Trump Immigration Proposal

City officials in Madison oppose President Donald Trump’s plan to remove millions of immigrants who are in the U-S illegally next week.  Madison Mayor Satya-Rhodes Conway and council members Shiva Bidar and Barbara Harrington-McKinney said in a statement,”it’s unfortunate that President Trump continues to threaten immigrant communities.”  They vow to stand with the immigrant community and work collaboratively with community leaders to respond to any increase in I-C-E enforcement.  They also said, “we fully understand that we all benefit because our immigrant friends and neighbors are here, and support their efforts to live, work and raise a family in Madison and the surrounding area.”
