A U.S. Senate hearing Tuesday highlighted growing frustration by lawmakers of both parties with some local governments’ refusal to fully cooperate with federal immigration authorities, as senators heard from the widow of a Sacramento County sheriff’s Deputy Danny Oliver, who prosecutors say was murdered by an undocumented immigrant.
The Senate Judiciary Committee’s scrutiny of federal immigration enforcement policies came a few weeks after this month’s killing of San Francisco resident Kathryn Steinle. The undocumented immigrant charged in that case, Juan Francisco Lopez Sanchez, had a lengthy criminal record and was deported several times. San Francisco, a so-called sanctuary city, had released Sanchez despite federal immigration officials’ request that he be detained.
According to the committee, San Francisco and other local governments in 276 counties in 43 states have turned down 8,811 immigration detainer requests.

When no member of congress can walk into a restaurant or supermarket without being booed and heckled. You get accountabilty by demanding it constantly. And loudly.
Did any of the committee fall asleep during the widow’s testimony? Pretty disgusting .... as one mom (Wilkerson) said on ‘Kelly’ last night, the politicians won’t DO anything unless it’s one of their family or a Hollywood star or a famous sports personality who is killed by an illegal alien.

Booed and heckled? This goes far beyond that for me. I have nothing but boiling contempt for what these SOB’s have done to my country.
