http://uschronicle.com/texas-does-not-mess-around-governor-greg-abbott-strips...Texas Governor Greg Abbott recently announced a plan to take state grant funding away from county Sheriffs who have a Sanctuary City policy in place. The Criminal Justice Division, CJD, offers funding grants to counties as long as they implement ICE detainers for criminal immigrants. In addition, any division who reports they are complying but fails to do so will have to repay the grant funding.
ICE, Immigration Customs Enforcement, has relaxed their own policies of detaining criminal illegal aliens, (King Bama Blessings), with a program called “catch and release.” The illegal criminals are caught and jailed but then released. They are supposed to be caught, jailed, and then deported. Out of 720,000 illegal immigrant criminals that were detained and eligible to be deported, only about 195,000 had charges filed against them. 68,000, who actually were charged and convicted, had refused to leave the country.
While a portion of these illegal alien’s may have minor charges, they are already guilty of committing the crime of entering our country illegally. Many have committed much worse crimes. Identity theft is a huge problem. They use this to get jobs, benefits, free education, food, housing and medical care. (with King Bama Blessings) (Oh, and who do the, ILLEGALS, Vote for ?)
There are sanctuary cities across the country, mainly in large suburban areas such as Chicago, Dallas, New York City, and Los Angeles. There are currently a total of 18 cities who flagrantly break the law by harboring illegal aliens. Illegal aliens flock to these cities to avoid being caught, jailed and deported. In other words, they are protected from prosecution. The federal government and ICE are doing nothing to penalize these cities. (with King Bama Blessings)
Governor Abbott is wielding his legislative power to enforce this law in Texas. Not only are the illegal immigrants being allowed to commit various types of fraud and crime, they are depleting state funds by the benefits they are illegally obtaining. That is less funding for other programs in the state for legal citizens.
Sanctuary cities are yet another example of why the United States has such a deplorable problem with illegal aliens entering the country. Illegal alien’s know they can hide in these cities, get all the benefits of an American citizen and not be punished. (with King Bama Blessings), The Sanctuary cities themselves are breaking the law and the federal government should be stripping away federal funding until they comply. In addition, the Governor of these states should be held accountable for not enforcing the laws. Doing so would go a long way in curbing the massive influx of illegal alien’s into the US. Should, CHANGE, after Jan 20th !
