Steve King: Give Capitol Police authority to crack down on illegal immigrant protesters

Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, introduced legislation this week that would give the U.S. Capitol Police authority to enforce federal immigration laws and said they need that authority to counteract illegal immigrants who hold protests in Congress.

"The Capitol Police, a federal law enforcement agency, do not have explicit statutory authority to enforce our immigration laws," King said.
