Ahead of the fifth anniversary of the senseless death of Sarah Root<\/a>, Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) reintroduced<\/a> S. 80, \u201cSarah\u2019s Law,\u201d which requires federal law enforcement to detain illegal aliens criminally charged with killing or seriously injuring another person. The reintroduction of Sarah\u2019s Law comes as President Biden rescinded former President Trump\u2019s executive order<\/a> prioritizing the prosecution of illegal aliens convicted of violent crimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an article<\/a> describing Sarah\u2019s Law, Senator Ernst wrote that: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah\u2019s Law is about as commonsense a reform as there is. It recognizes\nthe simple fact that all criminals should be held accountable for their actions\nand not allowed to slip back into the shadows. If Sarah\u2019s Law is passed, men\nand women who are in this country illegally and murder another person would be\nprioritized for deportation if released. Who could oppose something like this?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah\u2019s Law is co-sponsored by 19 other\nsenators, including two other members of Republican leadership. Its\nreintroduction comes as President Biden and his administration continue\ndismantling the previous administration\u2019s efforts to crack down on illegal\nimmigration, and particularly on illegal aliens with criminal records. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acknowledging the Biden administration\u2019s continuing efforts to eviscerate interior enforcement, co-sponsor Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) remarked<\/a> that \u201cPresident Biden\u2019s early actions as president make clear that protecting American citizens from violent illegal immigrants isn\u2019t a priority for his administration\u2014but it should be. Sarah\u2019s Law would ensure that federal law enforcement detains criminals who enter our country illegally and harm our citizens.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sentiment was echoed by Rick Scott (R-Fla.) who noted that \u201cwe know the Biden Administration is pushing a radical immigration agenda of amnesty and open borders that will threaten American safety.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As President Biden and Senate Democrats attempt to ram through the Biden-Harris amnesty plan<\/a>, Senator Ernst proposes actual reforms that would positively impact our immigration system by preventing dangerous illegal aliens from escaping justice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
