Tell them:
* "Vote in Favor of SB 358 to end dangerous sanctuary city
policies in Texas. Sanctuary City policies enable violent criminal
illegal aliens to remain within our communities, without fear of
being detected or deported."
* "Too many Texans (including Texas law enforcement officers)
have been killed and/or seriously injured because of the sanctuary
given to these law breakers by city officials."
* "Criminal illegal aliens injure and kill Texans from all
political parties and all races -- U.S. citizens, legal immigrants
& illegal aliens."
* "You were elected to protect Texans not criminal illegal
aliens."
* "90% of the U.S. based MS-13 gang members are foreign-born
illegal aliens." (per "Line in the Sand: Confronting the Threat on
the SW Border," Majority Staff of the House Committee on Homeland
Security, Subcommittee on Investigations; 2006 U.S. Congressional
Texas Hearings)
