Temecula is drawing a lot of attention this week. Not for its picturesque old town or wine country, but for a proposal made by council member Jessica Alexander.
"Let us be our first city in California to make a stand, let's mark our city as a sanctuary city for Temecula’s unborn," Alexander said at the end of a September 13th council meeting.Still, the matter caught the eye of California's Attorney General Rob Bonta.
KPBS also sought interviews with city officials including Alexander, but none made themselves available. An assistant to the city manager sent KPBS an email saying this is simply a resolution proposed for a future date, and tonight council members could choose to take several courses of action including placing the proposal on the agenda for a vote in the future. Or they could do nothing at all.Alexander has taken controversial stands in the past.
