From FOX News:
House passes Kate’s Law, as part of illegal immigrant crackdown
House Republicans took action Thursday to crack down on illegal immigrants and the cities that shelter them.
One bill passed by the House would deny federal grants to sanctuary cities and another, Kate’s Law, would increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States.
Kate's Law, which would increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States and caught, passed with a vote of 257 to 157, with one Republican voting no and 24 Democrats voting yes.
Kate's Law is named for Kate Steinle, a San Francisco woman killed by an illegal immigrant who was in the U.S. despite multiple deportations. The two-year anniversary of her death is on Saturday.
A lot of the people coming in just want a better life for themselves and their families. There is an open path to immigration that they can follow. For those just wanting to earn some money, there are agricultural visas available.
The illegal immigrants are a different story - these people want to move here, get on the dole and continue a life of crime knowing that if caught, they will get a slap on the wrist, maybe deported but they can come back and get on the dole again - lather rinse repeat. These are the people we need to take issue with.
