GOP-Led Committee Pushes Sanctuary Policy Reform

The measure would redirect federal grants from sanctuary jurisdictions and shield officers who cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Republicans said.

  • The GOP-led House Judiciary immigration subcommittee held a hearing on sanctuary jurisdictions, with Chairman Tom McClintock promising a vote on his bill before the full House this session.
  • McClintock's Shutdown Sanctuary Policies Act aims to override local restrictions on cooperation with federal immigration enforcement and shifts federal law enforcement grants away from sanctuary jurisdictions.
  • Democrats, including Rep. Pramila Jayapal, argue the bill will not pass and criticize it for promoting mass deportations and lacking immigration reform.
  • The hearing featured families of victims killed in accidents involving migrants in sanctuary jurisdictions, which Republicans cite to press for the bill's passage.
