Senate Democrats, undeterred by the vicious murder last year of Kate Steinle by a five-times deported illegal immigrant, blocked the Senate from conducting procedural motions to begin debate on two bills addressing the dangers of sanctuary cities and repeat illegal immigrants.
One bill, the Stop Dangerous Sanctuary Cities Act (S. 3100), sponsored by Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Penn., would define a “sanctuary city” as any state-level jurisdiction that fails to communicate with federal immigration officers or comply with a detainer request, as NumbersUSA reports. That bill would prevent jurisdictions from gaining community and economic development grants if they did not communicate with federal immigration officers or comply with a detainer request.
