Sanctuary Cities

It's about time the Sanctuary Cities started feeling some pain.
Call or write your Representative and ask for their support in this bill.

The Accountability in Enforcing Immigration Laws Act of 2007 (Rep. Ginny Brown-Waite, R-FL) would tackle the troubling trend of local governments to require their police officers to ignore the immigration status of suspects they encounter while performing their jobs.

HR 3531 would:
· Affirm and clarify that state and local law enforcement officials have the authority to apprehend and arrest illegal aliens encountered in the course of their routine duties.
· Provide additional federal funding to cooperating law enforcement agencies for the costs of apprehension and detention.
· Revoke 25 percent of non-emergency federal Homeland Security funding for sanctuary cities that refuse to change their policies.


Heck I think the FED should cut all aid to the sanctuary cities, remember in the 55 mph craze how the FED threatened to cut all highway funds to states not complying with the 55 mph mandate? Sure made them think twice!
