Gov. Bruce Rauner Monday signed into law one bill that would protect immigrants who are in the country illegally from being detained solely because of their immigration status and another that would automatically register many Illinoisans to vote.

The Republican governor's approval of the controversial immigration legislation marks a victory for immigrant advocates and a defeat for the more conservative members of his party, who had lobbied against it.

Known as the Trust Act, the new law would prohibit state and local police in Illinois from arresting or detaining a person solely because of their immigration status, or based on a federal immigration detainer. The law would, however, allow law enforcement officials to hold someone if a judge has issued a warrant.

"This was not an easy bill to pass, let's be clear," Rauner said, praising the bill as "a very reasonable, decent outcome."

He said he had sought out the opinion of law enforcement as he was contemplating whether to sign or veto the bill.

"I asked them, 'Should I sign this bill, should I not sign this bill?'" Rauner said. "They all said to me: 'Governor, this is a reasonable compromise. It will help us do our jobs better; it will help us keep our communities safer.'"

Rauner entered a bill signing ceremony at Mi Tierra restaurant in Little Village to cheers from at least 200 supporters of the measure. Outside, an opponent carried a sign that said, "Illinois victim families say no sanctuary state."

The governor's approach to the the immigration bill signing was an indication of his efforts to walk the line between his conservative base and the more moderate constituencies he'll need in order to win reelection in 2018..

He must be defeated and replaced in 2018.

Remember, when neolibs blabber about the Rule of Law, ask 'em, "What do you think of Sanctuary Laws?". Deliberate, Officially sanctioned non-cooperation between levels of Government is the opposite of the Rule of Law.
