Speech #1140040498

Mr. President. I first want to thank Senator ALEXANDER. and I have a few remarks to make about sanctuary cities and how they threaten the safety of our country. I am cosponsoring Senator COTTONS amendment to this bill that would withhold Federal law enforcement funds to sanctuary jurisdictions. The amendment. based largely on the provisions of the Michael Davis. Jr. and Danny Oliver in Honor of State and Local Law Enforcement Act. which we introduced a few weeks ago. ensures that jurisdictions that choose to endanger their communities and the public at large by adopting these reckless policies receive no Federal law enforcement funding.
