Chairman. I urge all Members to support Mr. CAMPBELLs amendment to help rid our communities of dangerous illegal alien criminals. I commend Mr. CAMPBELL for his commitment to immigration reform. His amendment would make sure that cities do not get Federal taxpayer dollars if they have policies in place that harbor and give sanctuary to illegal alien criminals. Sanctuary policies tie the hands of local law enforcement officers and keep illegal aliens who commit crimes in our country rather than deporting criminals according to U.S. law. Under these socalled sanctuary policies. in certain cities the police officers are prohibited from reporting the illegal aliens who commit crimes to Federal immigration authorities for deportation. As a result. taxpayers pay to incarcerate illegal alien prisoners who are later released back onto the streets. Welcome to Congress. You have had an impact right away.
