Mr. Speaker. today I rise in favor of H.R. 3009. Enforce the Law Against Sanctuary Cities Act. Why does it take tragedy after tragedy before this Congress and America gets behind the idea that we dont have to have more tragedies like Kate Steinle in San Francisco or one that almost may be forgotten about. Jamiel Shaw. Jr.. in southern California some years ago. all at the hands of illegal immigrants that should not be here. should be deported? Why do we keep doing this? Indeed. sanctuary cities not only dont enforce the law. they intentionally cause people to be in harms way because they are not enforcing the law. Denying funding to them is one strong message to sanctuary cities. over 300 of them now in the United States. that they are doing the wrong thing and needlessly endangering or losing the lives of Kate Steinle to illegal immigrants that are here causing this crime. Mr. Speaker.
