This Congressman has a plan to shut down Sanctuary Cities for good

Immigration, Politics 193

After the recent acquittal of Kate Steinle’s k**ler, so-called “Sanctuary Cities” are back in the spotlight.

The liberal media loves to ignore the dangers posed by them, but the outcome of the high profile case forced a public discussion.

Now one Congressman has introduced legislation he believes will shut down Sanctuary Cities once and for all.

Congressman Todd Rokita (R-IN) introduced a bill that could imprison and fine local and state officials $1 million if they obstruct enforcement of federal immigration policies.



The bill targets so-called “Sanctuary Cities,” which shelter i*****l a***ns by refusing to cooperate with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The Indy Star writes:

Under Rokita’s Stopping Lawless Actions of Politicians (SLAP) Act, violators could face up to five years of prison time and a fine of up to $1 million for ignoring the federal government’s requests for custody of undocumented individuals.

“The American people are rightfully infuriated watching politicians put their open-borders ideology before the rule of law, and the safety of the people they represent,” Rokita said in a statement. “Politicians don’t get to pick and choose what laws to comply with.”

While the legislation would face a difficult path navigating its way through this Congress, it may have already begun having its desired impact.

The article continues:

Jane Heneger, the executive director of Indiana ACLU, sees the bill has an attempt to “bully” local communities into immigration enforcement.

“Even if these laws aren’t passed, just proposing them sends a signal to immigrant neighbors that they need to be fearful, that they should not cooperate with local police and we aren’t a welcoming country and community,” Heneger said.




Attorney General Jeff Sessions argues that Sanctuary Cities make America less safe, as The Washington Times notes:

“When jurisdictions choose to return criminal aliens to the streets rather than turning them over to federal immigration authorities, they put the public’s safety at risk,” Mr. Sessions said. “San Francisco’s decision to protect criminal aliens led to the preventable and heartbreaking death of Kate Steinle.”

He said the k*****g and the verdict should be a wakeup call to other sanctuaries.

“I urge the leaders of the nation’s communities to reflect on the outcome of this case and consider carefully the harm they are doing to their citizens by refusing to cooperate with federal law enforcement officers,” Mr. Sessions said.

What do you think about Rep. Rokita’s proposal?

Do you agree with AG Sessions that Sanctuary Cities jeopardize public safety?

I guess Libs forgot we lost the civil war regarding states rights.. and at ANY time, the federal gov't can come in and spank these states hard for going against federal i*********n l*ws... Not that I'd wish this on anyone.. but wouldn't it change on their end pronto if one of their own got hit by a criminal Illegal... Oh.. and yes.. coming across the border w/out visa or green card is Illegal, so that makes ANY Illegal coming across as a criminal.. should be interesting, you know as well as I do that the s**t will hit the rotating device sooner rather than later!..

My hubby was a navy vet also.. He was very proud of our military in general.. All the above stated would indeed make life better.. for everyone except I******s... Oh no say it ain't so, that someone actually wants to send them back to where they came from and if they want to come back they will HAVE to go through legal process.. I still think we should close our borders down tighter than a bulls ass in fly season... NO one comes in w/out proper paperwork.. I think the Libs here on OPP and in general everywhere are all filled with rage & h**e regarding closing our borders...I think we should use the country of origin for these i******s.. immigration policies, unless ours are more strict then theirs.. They don't let folks come in and immediatly get on welfare, a person actually has to have $$ in the bank and can not be a tax on their economy!..
