I rise in strong support of the Campbell amendment. This legislation is quite straightforward. It informs our States and localities to enforce the law. That sounds ridiculous to us. I am sure. But the fact is that one of the main problems with our immigration laws is that we are not enforcing them. And under the immigration reform legislation we passed in 1996. we prohibited States and localities from barring their entities and barring officials from providing immigration information to the Department of Homeland Security. Now. these counties and these States have decided to defy the law. There should be a cost for that.
