[dropcap]A[/dropcap] coalition of civic groups banded together at San Marcos City Hall Thursday to present their draft resolution opposing Senate Bill 4, a measure regarding the ban of sanctuary cities.

Members of the League of United Latin America Citizens (LULAC) Council No. 654, Mano Amiga, the San Marcos Cinema Club as well as representatives from local businesses and clergy voiced concern over SB4, which was signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott in May. SB4 will take effect starting Sept. 1.

The draft resolution was accompanied by over 600 petition signatures and 50 businesses opposed to the bill.
