This is excellent legislation, call it "Kate's Law":
This would have never happened in the era of Obama - he would have deemed the verdict "just."

A Republican congressman plans to introduce a bill Monday that would threaten huge fines and prison time for elected officials accused of sheltering illegal immigrant criminals from deportation, in the wake of the not-guilty verdict in the Kate Steinle murder trial.
Indiana Rep. Todd Rokita’s bill is one of the most aggressive pieces of legislation to date aimed at sanctuary city policies, going beyond the Justice Department’s threat to cut off grants to those jurisdictions.
“Politicians don’t get to pick and choose what laws to comply with,” Rokita told Fox News. “Americans are dying because politicians sworn to uphold the law refuse to do so.”
His “Stopping Lawless Actions of Politicians (SLAP) Act” would hold state and local lawmakers criminally responsible for refusing to comply with federal immigration enforcement efforts. The Republican’s bill would subject violators to a $1 million fine and up to five years in prison if they are convicted.

Sounds like a good start.
Also, include the drunk driving illegals, who kill innocent people and sometimes destroy an entire family or most of that family.

#4 Fighter:
Trump, Moore, Nunez, Todd Rokita
Keep this list up.
I think we’re going to start to see its ranks grow.
Finally, a good, common sense solution to an outrageous situation.
That they let him go should be considered an accessory to murder. The guy had 7 felony convictions, what’s the difference between that and helping to free any other felon? Who released him? Who made that decision? Perp walk time.
In the old days, sheltering a criminal was a crime: accessory after the fact. And yes, an illegal alien is a criminal.
MAGA cat approvez dis effurt
.....a good start........must include the drunk driving illegals, who kill innocent people and destroy families......
What is the point of this? We have an A.G. that won’t enforce it.
The DOJ could have brought obstruction of justice charges against the mayor and police chief but they didn’t.
Naturally, members of Congress are exempt.
Got you beat by 244’.
Arrest these politicians who create a shelter city/state and wilfully harbour illegal aliens? Why has this taken so long to be conceived?
Yet:
House Passed Kate’s Law and No Sanctuary for Criminals Act in June, but Both Bills Languish in Senate.
Guess the senate has to keep the Goldman Sachs crowd happy.
Great idea. We have TONS of illegal parasites in Austin and looking through the weekly arrest database (in the local fishwrap) there are a lot of illegals arrested for DWI every damn week. The tipoff is the hyphenated last name. That and how many times the perp has been convicted of DWI in the past (most illegals have at least 2 previous convictions).
full support.
The acronym “SLAP” also works for “Police”, who should also be included in this bill for when they choose to ignore mob violence by the Antifa types.
By law, allow the families of those murdered and maimed by illegals to “sue personally” the douche bags politicians in office who have blood on their hands because of their self-serving, bottom-feeding Liberal policies!!!
