Senate Democrats blocked the combined bill in October 2015.

The sanctuary cities bill, officially titled Senate Bill 3100 (the Stop Dangerous Sanctuary Cities Act), allows state and local law enforcement to cooperate with federal immigration and law enforcement officials with regard to actions taken to comply with an immigration detainer.

Congress will do whatever obama/hillary wants them to and it won’t be good for us.

The point should be that any time a LOE comes into contact with an illegal alien, that alien should be taken into custody, their country of origin determined, and then immediately repatriated within 24 hours.

Totally agree. He is the very WORST in a LONG SERIES of BAD GOP House leaders. Gingrich was the last best one.

And Newt Gingrich was an open borders, NAFTA, WTO guy when he was Speaker. But still he was better than what came after. Denny Hastert? RINO buffoon/high school wrestling coach and showers coordinator.

Dems are going all out open borders in 2016 to score more Democrap voters. A good contrast to Trump so lets hope Trump gets the nomination.
