Illegal reentries are happening because there are no consequences. That is what happened in Kate Steinles death. And. that is why we need to move on Kates law. That bill would deter people from illegally reentering by enhancing penalties and establishing new mandatory minimum sentences for certain individuals with previous felony convictions. The Obama administration cannot continue to turn a blind eye to drunk drivers. sanctuary communities. and people who ignore our laws. overstay their visas. or cross the border time and again. I am still waiting for answers from the Obama administration on this case. and many more. There are many unanswered questions.
