Your proposal will ensure we do not dishonor the memory of Kate Steinle and the immeasurable grief her family is enduring. The letter went on: Ms. Steinle was killed in San Francisco by an illegal immigrant who had previously been deported from the United States five times. and had been convicted of seven felonies. The shooter chose to live in San Francisco because he knew it was a sanctuary city that would shield him from Federal immigration law. Tragically. his "sanctuary" gambit proved fatal for the Steinle family. Federal officials requested that San Francisco detain the shooter until immigration authorities could pick him up. but San Francisco officials refused to cooperate and released Sanchez three months before Kates murder. We owe it to Kate and the American citizenry to fix this community safety issue now. That is what the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association had to say about the bill that we will be voting on when we get back.
