What is Nirenberg's stance on sanctuary cities? I have looked and read, but he has not answered the question in any public forum I have found.

Anyone?
Anyone?
I don't know if he has addressed it directly, but he has said, in so many words, that he thinks the SAPD already has its hands full dealing with law enforcement without asking it to do the federal government's job as well, so I take that to mean he is opposed to Abbott's bill.

One of the most talked about concerns is the idea of San Antonio becoming a sanctuary city.
None of the candidates in the debate stood up in support of the premise but they all had their own reasons why.
Mayor Ivy Taylor feels the city's Police force has to stay focused on their jobs and they don't have time to stop random people to ask about their immigration status.
City Councilman Ron Nirenberg says the city doesn't need another dictate from Austin or DC that is unfunded and unmanageable.
Thanks
Speaking of unfunded mandates, I see there is talk of city funding legal expenses for some immigrants.
That would not surprise me. City government in SA has become very liberal.
SA will always be moderately liberal as long as idiots like the Castro brothers are around and people believe in their ideas
Castro is endorsing Nirenberg. That should help you make up your mind.
It absolutely did. Easy call now.

In another thread I mentioned I noticed a direct correlation between who had Hillary signs in the fall and who had Ron signs this spring.
I live in District 10. Surprising to me is that some of the more conservative voices in this district are supporting commie neckbeard Ezra Johnson because that angry conservative crackpot Carlton Soules is supporting Perry.
Castro just killed Nuremberg

Maybe that is his plan to get Ivy elected
That would imply that he is somewhat intelligent. He is not. Even my Democratic friends that know him fairly well just roll their eyes at the mention of the Castro name.jgh85Ag said:

Anyone think that the John Courage signs kinda look like USSR Cold War Propaganda posters?
Lot of libs mad at Taylor over website. Nirenburg has a very punch able face
Not thrilled about the endorsement from Castro but Ron still has my vote.
Find it funny with this liberal smear campaign concocted by Ivy's campaign manager, a democrat, whereas Ron's is run by a republican.

In a place like San Antonio you don't have parties, you have factions that fight over how to spend the government money.

Yep the Castro brothers love Republicans.
Asshat Julian Castro keeps pushing nirenburg. I think it's backfiring because Castro is hated so much. I think Taylor has this in the bag
Police union endorsed Ivy on wednesday
I keep seeing where Ron is referred to as a "progressive" by such entities as The Current.
I think I'll be sticking with Ivy in the runoff. I don't trust 11th hour 180-degree changes in philosophy ahead of elections.

Ron Nirenberg keep trying vaguely paint her as corrupt, but all he ever comes up with is that ethics deal with her husband's company that came up after they had appointed her mayor to fill hoolians term.
I've run into Ron in my professional life. I would vote none of the above before Ron. He's a career politician that would sell his soul for a vote. SA desperately needs to move to a four year mayoral election cycle. City council members start campaigning the day after an election is held.
Hardberger just endorsed Nirenberg, and to the extent it matters I don't think Taylor did a stellar job on the river barge contract (although I don't think it will impact the race much, if at all). It's gonna be a tight race.
All the politicians that love to scratch each other's backs and spend money like drunken sailors are lining up behind Nirenberg, which is pretty much most of the people in/with power around town. East side has always been a stepchild and Taylor is still an outsider looking in. I think this will be a landslide for Nirenberg.
I'm afraid I feel the same way.

This is my San Antonio face. Sure hope you are wrong, but when it comes to cronyism, our leaders are some of the best.Burdizzo said:

I hope I am wrong too, but I got a bad feeling about this.
Ivy Taylor doesn't support the lawsuit against the state over the sanctuary cities bill. That is going to cost her some votes from people who probably were not voting for her anyway.
District 10: Ezra Johnson is as liberal as they come. Hillary supporter since 2008 primary and completely progressive on every issue. Please don't give this guy a platform.
The castro's and harburger (former sierra club lawyer) endorse Nirenberg. All you need to know...
Nirenberg it is.
100,000 votes cast in this race. Pathetic.

Been that way for decades. 50,000+ determining policy for close to 2 million.

Embarrassing. I can only imagine the dollars per vote that was spent on this campaign.
