The bill, as has been mentioned, cuts off critical law enforcement
funding, and that is why the Fraternal Order of Police has written its
letter in opposition to the bill. Taken together, the provisions of this bill undermine law
enforcement's ability to keep communities safe, hurt victims and
witnesses of crimes, and likely violate the U.S. Constitution. It is no surprise this bill is a priority for the Trump
administration. Anti-immigrant sentiment may have become the hallmark
of the Trump administration, but it does not represent the values of
our Nation, and, indeed, the majority of Americans strongly oppose
President Trump's agenda. Mr. Speaker, I urge our colleagues to oppose this rule and to oppose
the bill.
