Mitt Romney spoke in Iowa today and told the crowd something that I whole-heartedly agree with:
“There are some cities in this country that have said, we’re calling ourselves a sanctuary city, we’re going to call ourselves a city where our city employees will not look into someone’s illegal status, will not notify the federal government that someone’s here illegally,” Romney told more than 100 central Iowans in Urbandale this morning.
“We send hundreds of millions of dollars to these cities, even billions of dollars, from the federal government,” the former Massachusetts governor said during a question-and-answer session at the Iowa Machine Shed restaurant. “We ought to stop doing that.”
Yes we should. When cities invite criminals into the city and then tell law enforcement not to look at them to closely, you forfeit federal aid. Maybe the loss of millions of dollars would compel the liberal mind to see illegal immigration as a crime.
