A resolution to be debated by the Metro Nashville Council this week to recognize “Immigrant Heritage Month” also condemns last month’s joint operation between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Tennessee Highway Patrol conducted in the city, which saw the arrests of 196 criminal illegal aliens.
The resolution, RS2025-1291, was filed on May 27 and is sponsored by Council Members Terry Vo, Jeff Preptit, Jennifer Gamble, Joy Styles, Antoinette Lee, Kyonzte Toombs, Brandon Taylor, Delishia Porterfield, Zulfat Suara, and Tasha Ellis.
The resolution begins by detailing the origins of Immigrant Heritage Month, explaining how the designation was started in 2014

I was a longtime Nashville resident. Moved to an adjoining county 8 years ago because of the influx of folks from California, Colorado and New York. The "Big Cities," i.e, Memphis and Nashville, are blue; the bulk of the rest of the state is blood red. We have a republican governor and heavily republican legislature. Nashville is dangerous and an embarrassment to most of us; and if you're a Tennessean, you usually don't go there. "Music City" isn't for Tennesseans anymore.

What is going on in Tennessee? Are they going the CA (and IL and NY) way were a few large, liberal (and oftentimes sanctuary) cities control the State?

The leftist and progressive Democrats ignore mass uncontrolled and unlimited illegal immigration into the USA and by their actions and words are against any illegal aliens being removed (deported) from the USA. As the Democrats consider today’s illegal aliens, especially Third World origin poor and generally uneducated illegal aliens, who the Democrats also consider to be members of minority groups in accordance with Democrat identity politics, to be future leftist and progressive Democrat supporters and voters. This is after the Democrats grant them amnesty and put them on “a path to citizenship” through future Democrat designed so-called “comprehensive immigration reform” congressional legislation that will become future immigration law. It has been like that since the Democrats were able to fake out President Ronald Reagan into signing a mass amnesty for millions of illegal aliens, fraudulently claiming that they (the Democrats) would support effective enforcement of the immigration laws from then on that never happened, and instead that mass amnesty served to supercharge mass uncontrolled and unlimited illegal immigration up to today, when the USA wakes up and finds twenty million illegal aliens unlawfully ensconced across the country. Once you understand all that you will understand the Democrats illegal immigration game. Many wimpy Republicans and of course the RINOS, who support allowing unlimited cheap foreign labor into the USA, don’t have a clue that the Democrats intend to wipe them out politically by eventually using tens of millions of future foreign origin “New American” supporters and voters to keep those Republicans from ever being elected on into the future. Thus creating future permanent leftist and progressive Democrat political control across the USA, and on into the future transforming the USA into a minority-majority populated socialist country. The question is will the leftist and progressive Democrats using fraudulent claims that they will support future immigration enforcement across the USA fake out President Trump to support another Democrat designed amnesty for untold millions of illegal aliens? Remember human nature dictates that for the immigration laws to be effective, all illegal aliens, not just convicted criminal aliens, must remain subject to arrest and removal (deportation) from the USA.

This is what happens when leftists move into your cities and states; they bring their garbage thinking with them. The governor and legislature need to reign in Nashville.

Is "Immigrant Heritage Month" the same thing as "Pride Month"?

Why? Liberals, why are you doing this to our country!?
The same people who claim “no one is above the law” are now passing laws telling people to break laws. Wow.

Nashville and Memphis has always been Blue in a sea of Red in Tennessee. That aside Freddy the Mayor needs some Federal and State intervention. The way Nashville makes decisions beyond their purview you’d think they are their own sovereign country.

Immigrants are LEGALLY HERE, but illegal aliens are NOT legally here and are NEVER "immigrants".
Dems intentionally mix up terms to intentionally LIE.
Like calling semi-auto rifles 'assault weapons' when they do NOT meet the clear definition of those items.
Dems are ALWAYS forced to lie because their actual policy positions are unpopular and disastrous.

Checking for the names most of the council seems to be black, so it's no surprise they went for the short money.

You have to give credit to the liberals. They are masters of taking over big city governments, even in the reddest of states.
