Comer: Sanctuary Governors ‘Handcuff Law Enforcement from Doing Their Jobs, Harbor Predators and Call It Compassion’

EXCERPT:

COMER: “Just a few weeks ago, Minnesota Governor Walz stood at a commencement podium and smeared ICE agents as, quote, 'Trump modern-day Gestapo,' end quote. Comparing brave law enforcement officers who risked their lives to uphold federal law to Nazi thugs is not just wrong, it's vile and disgusting. I can only hope this reckless remark was not meant to incite violence. Assaults on ICE officers are already up 400 percent compared to this time last year, and we have witnessed repeated attempts at obstruction and assaults against federal law enforcement, recently captured on video in California. Governor Hochul's sanctuary policies cost taxpayers billions to house, feed, and provide driver's license for illegal aliens, while the cost of rent rises and hospitals are overrun. Her defiance of federal law invites crime to plague communities across the state. Governor Pritzker faces lawsuits for obstructing ICE as he turns cities like Chicago into havens for drugs and crime. He's yet another governor providing free care, free care, to illegal aliens that many of his own citizens like. These governors handcuff law enforcement from doing their jobs, harbor predators, and call it compassion."
