House Republicans are eyeing a DHS funding bill as a way to include amendments to target sanctuary cities and increase deportations and detention of illegal migrants.
Former Acting ICE Director Ron Vitiello reacts to new border data that contradicts President Biden's claim that illegal crossings are dropping on "Fox News Live."to push for sweeping amendments that would overhaul immigration enforcement, including hitting sanctuary cities, in response to the ongoing migrant crisis at the southern border.
While much of the energy on Capitol Hill is geared toward avoiding a government shutdown at the end of the month, Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas, has introduced a slew of amendments to the appropriations bill, which funds the Department of Homeland Security for the upcoming fiscal year.U.S. military personnel keep watch as asylum seekers are transferred via city bus from a Port Authority bus terminal to housing facilities in the Bronx and Queens on May 15, 2023, in New York City.
Another amendment would adopt legislation to prioritize the removal of certain illegal immigrants, another would bar money from being made available for the release of illegal immigrants into the interior. One amendment would block money from being used for migrant transports in the interior without 72-hour notifications to the state and local officials of the destination and notification on the DHS website — tapping into concerns about late-night migrant flights.
