That's odd. I figured they would be paid by the county.

Sounds like local govt needs to break away from state govt.
I don't know how it is in Virginia, but it's probably supplemental stuff from the state. Paid locally, but supplemented by grants or the legislature. Pushback over the sanctuary status was bound to happen and was discussed before the rally even happened. The Dems know how to put pressure on. But hey, Trump was acting illegally when he supposedly did the same thing in the Ukraine to get them to out Biden.
