They were responsible for 1.075 aggravated assault convictions. They were responsible for 16.070 drunk driving convictions. On top of that. the Obama administration had another 68.000 illegal immigrants with criminal convictions whom the Federal Government encountered but never even bothered to take into custody for deportation. That is over 104.000 criminal illegal aliens the Obama administration is responsible for releasing to the public. I ask my friends on the Democratic side of the aisle how you look in the eyes of a father or mother who has lost their loved one because of a violent criminal illegal alien. who has murdered. who has raped. who has assaulted. who has kidnapped. who has brutalized your child? We are responsible for the consequences of our actions. Kates Law is commonsense legislation. It is legislation that says: If a criminal illegal alien who is an aggravated felonwho is the worst of the worstillegally reenters this country. comes in a second time. that criminal illegal alien will face a mandatory minimum of 5 years in prison. If Kates Law had been passed 5 years ago. Kate Steinle would still be alive. That means every Democrat who stands up and blocks Kates Law needs to be prepared to explain why standing with violent criminal illegal aliens is more important than protecting American citizens. I am proud to have joining me as cosponsors of Kates Law Senator GRASSLEY. Senator VITTER.
