UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off. We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos

We Dems in Red States see this all the time. Blue City voters pass a law; the Red State legislature "preempts" it. It's their maddening, anti-democratic playbook. And you can expect to see more of it nationally. P.S. The GOP's love of "local control"? Total hogwash. They want power. Period.
