Attorney General William Barr announced Monday that there will be a “significant escalation” from the government against “sanctuary” cities, counties and states, including lawsuits against localities opposed to the Trump administration's hard-line immigration policies.

The administration is attempting to crack down on local and state governments that have pledged to protect undocumented immigrants from deportation. Barr announced lawsuits against the state of New Jersey and King County, Wash., which includes Seattle.

“Unfortunately, in various jurisdictions, so-called ‘progressive’ politicians are jeopardizing the public’s safety by putting the interests of criminal aliens before those of law-abiding citizens,” Barr said.

“These policies are textbook examples of misguided ideology triumphing over commonsense law enforcement,” he added.

Barr, speaking at the National Sheriffs’ Association 2020 Winter Legislative and Technology Conference, said the department is "reviewing the practices, policies and laws of other jurisdictions across the country" to see if they follow laws banning the “harboring or shielding” of undocumented immigrants, Axios reported.

The administration’s suit against New Jersey will attempt to prevent states from enforcing law that stops them from sharing information about criminally charged undocumented immigrants with federal authorities. The King County case will fight a law that bans the Department of Homeland Security “from deporting aliens from the United States through the county airport,” according to Reuters.

Barr also mentioned a lawsuit against California over the legislation forbidding private detention facilities.

He added the department will be “meticulously reviewing” the actions of district attorneys who he said have been “charging foreign nationals with lesser offenses for the express purpose of avoiding the federal immigration consequences,” according to media reports.

President Trump also highlighted sanctuary jurisdictions in his State of the Union address last week, specifically calling out California and New York, specifically a case of a New York man charged with raping and murdering a 92-year-old woman.

"The killer had been previously arrested for assault, but under New York's sanctuary policies, he was set free. If the city had honored ICE's detainer request, his victim would be alive today," he said.

Research shows that "sanctuary" localities are actually safer that similarly sized ones that cooperate fully with federal immigration authorities, but Barr's Monday announcement underlines that the Trump administration will seek to rein in states and cities that oppose its decisions.

The Department of Homeland Security announced last week it has blocked New York residents from enrolling in Global Entry and other Trusted Traveler Programs after the state's new law allowing undocumented immigrants to get driver's licenses went into effect.

Okay, I admit, they did get one thing right. And I'm thankful for it. However, don't you want to end this DACA-nightmare?

No way. Much rather have DACA than no DACA. I see DACA as a blessing rather than a nightmare. You're out of your mind if you think Congress will take up the DACA issue if it ends.

Of course, but when there is at least some solid forecast that reasonable relief will actually happen.

I really don't buy into the whole idea that if the SCOTUS/Trump kill DACA, we will automatically get some form of sensible relief. I don't understand how some of you think you have a crystal ball that indicates that or how you have such good faith in congress and the Trump admin to do something in good faith for us. All that the majority in power wants to push is shit like the Goodshit bill and if something does come together, it will he something like that, not something we actually need.

It's naive and desperate to think we will get sensible relief with this admin, this Senate, and this SCOTUS. It's been turning some Dreamers into low key or full on Trump supporters. Idiots with no integrity that just want theirs tend to have a hard time stepping back and looking at the big picture, looking at what each party represents, and realizing how politics work.

That’s kinda fucked up of you calling those Dreamers idiots with no integrity. Like forgive us for wanting to reach across the aisle to possibly come out with a solution..we do pay our own taxes after all. Smh.

Oh 2Face, I'm so sorry to have triggered you for having a bit more faith in the party that actually gave us DACA and that historically has shown more support for us rather than the party that is trying to screw us and rip our rights away... and that has a bigger base that doesn't believe in climate change, or marriage equality, or stem cell research, or... should I keep going?

Get yo head outta yo ass.
