REP. SENSENBRENNER NAMED CHAIRMAN OF IMMIGRATION SUBCOMMITTEE

    PUBLISHED: Mon, JAN 16th 2017 @ 2:09 pm EST

    Last Friday Rep. James Sensenbrenner was named as the new Chairman of the House Immigration and Border Security Subcommittee for the 115th Congress. Rep. Sensenbrenner has been a long time advocate for border security and tougher enforcement against illegal aliens.

    In 2005 Rep. Sensenbrenner sponsored the Border Protection, Antiterrorism, and Illegal Immigration Control Act that called for mandatory E-Verify, additional fencing along the southern border, and changed illegal border crossings from a civil offense to a criminal offense. The bill became known as the “Sensenbrenner Bill” and was passed by a bipartisan effort of 239-182 vote in the House but was defeated in the Senate.
