State Sen. President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon, D-Los Angeles, responds to a lawmakers question concerning his bill to prohibit local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration authorities during a hearing of the Senate Public Safety Committee, Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2017, in Sacramento, Calif. The committee approved De Leon's measure, SB54, that has been introduced less than a week after President Donald Trump's signed an order threatening to withdraw some federal grants from jurisdictions that bar official from communicating with federal authorities about someone's immigration status. If approved by the Legislature and signed by the governor, it could create a border-to-border sanctuary in the nation's largest state.(AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli)
