Watch Live: Attorney General Pam Bondi to make immigration enforcement announcement

Attorney General Pam Bondi is expected to make an immigration enforcement announcement Wednesday afternoon, her first major announcement as the nation's top law enforcement official. 

In her first hours as attorney general, she issued a sweeping set of directives that targeted sanctuary jurisdictions with an order to end funding to any that "unlawfully interfere with federal law enforcement operations." She encouraged the department to pursue enforcement actions against sanctuary cities or states that don't comply with the federal government's immigration enforcement efforts.

"State and local jurisdictions must comply with applicable immigration-related federal laws," one memo read. It also said that "state and local actors may not impede, obstruct, or otherwise fail to comply with lawful immigration-related directives."
