Following the tragic July 1^st slaying of 32-year old Kathryn Steinle in San Francisco – and the terrible consequences of that city’s blatant refusal to enforce federal immigration laws, the issue of sanctuary legislation has received a new burst of national attention.

Steinle’s alleged killer is an illegal alien with 7 prior felony convictions…

 …who had already been deported 5 times.

According to reports, U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had turned the suspect over to San Francisco police on an outstanding warrant.  ICE “issued a detainer for Sanchez in March, requesting to be notified if he was going to be released.”

Following the city’s sanctuary policy,

San Francisco police released Sanchez

without notifying ICE.

NPG has long denounced the growing trend of sanctuary cities throughout the nation.  Noting that these communities refuse to enforce immigration laws – and actually assist those who blatantly violate U.S. laws, NPG has called for Congress to do everything it can to eliminate them.

For many years, NPG has called for Congress to push back against sanctuary cities – advocating the elimination of federal funding for those cities which refuse to enforce federal law.  Sanctuary cities only encourage illegal immigration, which is a significant source of America’s destructive population growth.

And it finally appears that

Congress is beginning to listen!

As recently reported by Breitbart, on July 14^th the U.S. House of Representatives Appropriations Committee passed an amendment to the 2016 Homeland Security Appropriations Bill which would “withhold funding from cities with sanctuary policies and inhibit enforcement of immigration law.” 

Other amendments to the funding bill were also passed – several of which were designed to help stamp out dangerous “catch and release” policies and prevent another tragedy like the loss of Kathryn Steinle.
