The meeting will be rescheduled once the city secures space that can handle the expected crowd safely.

Ocean Shores city leaders are hitting pause on their next council meeting as emotions around immigration issues continue to run high.

Council members emphasize that no sanctuary policy has been adopted and no formal action has been taken. The meeting will be rescheduled once the city secures space that can handle the expected crowd safely.
