SAMPLE LETTR
If you would like to ask your city council to oppose the Sanctuary State Law, below is a sample letter and info that Arthur Schaper has been presenting to cities.
City of [CITY]
Agenda Report Date:
Ordinance Item No.:
To: Mayor & Members of the City Council
Via: City Manager
From:
Subject: Introduce Ordinance Adding Chapter X Constitution
of the United States Compliance
Summary: This is an opportunity to discuss the Council’s desire to show its resolve
and support for the Constitution of the United States by adopting a Resolution or
Ordinance.
Recommendations:
1. Introduce for first reading, read by title only, and waive further reading of
Ordinance No. X; and,
2. Title of Ordinance: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF [CITY], CALIFORNIA: CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES COMPLIANCE.”
Background and Discussion
The California Values Act (SB54) is contrary to the United States Constitution and
infringes on the rights of the citizens of the City of [CITY]. Furthermore, it affects
the City Council’s oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
In view of this contradiction, it is impossible to comply with both the Constitution of the
United States and the Constitution of the State of California. When two governing
documents contradict each other, the order of precedence needs to be invoked and
followed.
In this situation, my belief is that the Constitution of the United States has precedence
over the Constitution of the State of California, so therefore I am proposing that the City
Council discuss and adopt Ordinance No. 2018-03 to exempt the City of [CITY]
from the California Values Act.
ORDINANCE NO. X
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF [CITY]CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER
X CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES COMPLIANCE
WHEREAS, the members of the City of [CITY] City Council have taken an
oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of
the State of California, and
WHEREAS, the State of California enacted SB54, called the California Values
Act, and
WHEREAS, the California Values Act is codified into Government Code Title 1,
Division 7, Chapter 17.25 entitled "Cooperation with Immigration Authorities", and
WHEREAS, the Council of the City of [CITY], a Charter City, finds that it is
impossible to honor our oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United
States and to be in compliance with California Government Code Title 1, Division 7,
Chapter 17.25, and
WHEREAS, employees of the City of [CITY], residents, business owners,
guests, visitors, employees and employees of the United States Department of Defense
who proudly serve our Nation while stationed on the Joint Forces Training Base, are
entitled to the protections afforded by the Constitution of the United States, the Bill of
Rights, and the Amendments to the Constitution, and
WHEREAS, employers, including the City of [CITY], operating within the
jurisdiction of the City of [CITY]who accept Federal Contracts and must comply
with Federal Law, including lawful requests for access to premises, and
WHEREAS, the entire Joint Forces Training Base may be required to comply
with Federal Laws and is wholly located within the boundaries of the City of [CITY], and
WHEREAS, the California Values Act may be in direct conflict with Federal Laws
and the Constitution of the United States;
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF [CITY]

Constitution of the United States.
SECTION 3. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or
portion of this Ordinance for any reason is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the
decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity
of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it
would have adopted this Ordinance, and each section, subsection, subdivision,

more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions
thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
