Sanctuary officials could get 5 years in prison under ‘Libby Schaaf Act’
Sanctuary officials could get 5 years in prison under ‘Libby Schaaf Act’
New bill named after Oakland mayor who tipped illegal immigrants to ICE sweep
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Monday, May 21, 2018
Tipping illegal immigrants off to a looming immigration sweep could net sanctuary city leaders jail time, under a new bill announced Monday by Rep. Steve King.
The Iowa Republican dubbed the bill the Mayor Libby Schaaf Act, after the Oakland mayor who alerted California’s Bay Area to an impending sweep earlier this year, in a move that immigration officials said helped hundreds of people escape detection.
At the time, the chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Ms. Schaaf was essentially acting as a “gang lookout” tipping off lawbreakers when police came through their neighborhood.
Mr. King’s new bill would include a penalty of up to five years in prison for any state or local official who obstructs enforcement of federal laws.
“I want lawless, sanctuary city politicians to hear this message clearly: If you obstruct ICE, you are going to end up in the cooler,” Mr. King said in announcing his bill.

Sounds GREAT to me,....
One question....If it just being put into law now....Schaaf would not be affected as she did it prior to the law.........No????The difference between an immigrant and an illegal alien is the equivalent of the difference between a burglar and a houseguest.
