Federal intervention is required because state and local laws are limited and inadequate to address the problem, the activists said.
In their missive, Sanchez and Monserrate thanked the FBI and other agencies in the Trump administration for prosecuting members of migrant gangs — including the Venezuelan-based Tren de Aragua and the 18th Street gang, which regularly extort brothels, beat rivals and sell drugs and phony IDs to finance an illicit network based in El Salvador.
“However, both gangs continue to operate in our community and we impress upon you that more needs to be done to keep our community safe,” they told the FBI director.

We should only allow in as many criminals as we already have competent agents to investigate.
Dei hires, and criminals let in, it is too much.
