This man came illegally to the United States five times, one time, at least, through Arizona. In the sanctuary city of San Francisco he had a detainer and federal officials begged \u2018please, this man is a danger, hand him over to us\u2019 and the city refused to,\u201d said Congresswoman McSally.\u00a0 \u201cKate Steinle was killed because the laws on the books were not enforced. The dangerous policies of sanctuary cities, like San Francisco, are not safe for Americans and their families.\u201d\nThe Congresswoman pointed to legislation she supports to cut off federal grants to sanctuary cities that do not enforce federal laws, as well as Kate\u2019s Law, named after Kate Steinle, which will increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States.\u00a0 \u00a0\nMcSally also talked about the need to enforce border security. \u201cWe absolutely need to be increasing our border security to include physical infrastructures where necessary and additional technology so border patrol can do their job and stop the entry of illegal felons like him,\u201d McSally said.\nWatch their exchange by clicking HERE or below:", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://mcsally.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/us-rep-mcsally-steinle-was-killed-because-laws-books-were-not-enforced"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6292249783873558, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
