Some on the other side of the aisle are criticizing us for politicizing these recent attacks by criminal aliens and releases by sanctuary jurisdictions. We are being accused of attacking immigrants. However. I just want to note that the Democrats take no shame in politicizing the recent gun violence and promoting legislation that would not have stopped some of the shootings. from Newtown. CT. to Roseburg. OR. This is not a partisan issue. This bill protects lawabiding people and improves our public safety. Had it been enacted before July 1. individuals like Kate Steinle might still be with us. I would think we should all be able to agree that people who are in the country illegally and committing crimes should not be released back into the community.
