Republican senators told Fox News Digital that they are fed up with liberal sanctuary cities like Los Angeles attempting to impede federal immigration authorities from enforcing the law, some suggesting that it is time the legislative branch intervened to pull their funding.

"We have to say, ‘Enough is enough,’" said Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala. "I don't understand why we would continue to give federal dollars to someone who doesn't abide by federal law. I mean, think about that. That is very simple."

Speaking with Fox News Digital in the Senate office building halls, Britt said, "There's been no more-litigated issue over the last four years than the millions and millions of illegal migrants coming across our border."


"What a sanctuary city says is, ‘You can commit a crime, we will allow for lawlessness, and we will not turn you over to the federal authorities.’ I mean, think about that. That is absolute insanity, and we're not going to stand for it anymore," she said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Flapping one's jaws in front of reporters to get attention is not the same as getting legislation enacted.  I hope this isn't just attention seeking. :pondering:

Why is anything like a sanctuary city allowed to exist in the first place? I'll wait.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
