Miami-Dade may have surrendered, but a group of "sanctuary cities" is banding together to resist U.S. President Donald Trump's crackdown on undocumented immigrants — even if it means losing millions of dollars in federal grants. Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone greets elders during a parade in the Massachusetts city, which has been a sanctuary city since 1987. The 24-year-old receives Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), which protects him from deportation temporarily, but he worries about other undocumented immigrants who are not protected. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee on Wednesday reassured residents that San Francisco will remain a sanctuary city. But Pedro Figueroa-Zarceno, 32, doesn't need to imagine what San Francisco would be like if it wasn't a sanctuary city.
