Agree

Yes

While Bill Clinton's administration did not specifically address the issue of sanctuary cities, his policies generally favored a balanced approach to immigration. He supported measures to control illegal immigration but also advocated for the rights of immigrants. Therefore, he might moderately agree with federal funding for sanctuary cities.

Disagree

No

Given Clinton's balanced approach to immigration, it is unlikely that he would strongly oppose federal funding for sanctuary cities. However, he did sign the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, which increased border control and penalties for illegal immigration. This might suggest a slight disagreement with the idea of federal funding for sanctuary cities.

Strongly disagree

No, and we should ban the use of sanctuary cities

Clinton's administration was generally supportive of immigrant rights, and he did not take any actions to ban sanctuary cities during his presidency. Therefore, it is unlikely that he would agree with the idea of banning sanctuary cities.
