Political Quotes

“Most Americans get it. Frankly, it is just common sense. We can't continue to reward folks who come to our country illegally while those who work hard and play by the rules struggle to get ahead. It is way past time to fix our broken immigration policies in America. Today, the House is considering two commonsense reforms to combat illegal immigration, restore rule of law, and protect public safety. The No Sanctuary for Criminals Act defunds sanctuary cities and cracks down on dangerous sanctuary city policies that shield criminal investigations from Federal immigration enforcement and puts American citizens at risk. Kate's Law increases penalties for deported felons who return to America and commit further crimes. Kate's Law was named after a young woman who was tragically gunned down by a five-time deported felon nearly 2 years ago to this day. It is outrageous. The Federal Government's first duty is to protect its citizens. I urge my colleagues to support these much-needed reforms and then do more to stop illegal immigration in the United States. ____________________”
