I hope so Airborne because I'm ready! It's about time our government gets a kick in their collective asses by the people who have the real power, the citizens. They've needed it for sometime, and I hope it's coming very soon.

H.R.3531

This is a longshot; however if this passes, I think it will totally turn the tide in the fight against illegal immigration.

I don't understand why we need another law. It is already against federal law for a sanctuary city to operate. When officials in a city try and block the enforcement of the fed, they should be held in contempt and charged with obstruction of justice. If the fed needs to send a loud message, then bust Chicago.
