During the Biden Regime, there wasn’t a whole lot Republicans could do.

Some in Congress would make “criminal referrals” but since those went to Merrick Garland they were essentially dead on arrival.

But not anymore.

Now we have Pam Bondi at the helm, and while I have been critical of her handling of the Epstein Files, I don’t question that she’s on our side and she’ll take action on these criminal violations.

So I was so happy to see this:

Here’s more from CBS News:

What to know about the “sanctuary cities” hearing today

The mayors of four so-called “sanctuary cities” testified Wednesday before the Republican-led House Oversight Committee, where they defended their jurisdictions’ immigration policies and treatment of undocumented immigrants.

The witnesses included Eric Adams of New York, Mike Johnston of Denver, Brandon Johnson of Chicago and Michelle Wu of Boston. The mayors are all Democrats, and fielded tough questions from Republicans about their cities’ policies regarding undocumented immigrants.

The “sanctuary city” refers to a broad range of policies that limit local cooperation with federal immigration agents. The mayors argued the policies are crucial for ensuring undocumented immigrants report crimes and access city services without fear of deportation. Republicans accused the mayors of defying President Trump’s immigration agenda and releasing dangerous criminals onto the streets.

Here is Rep. Anna Paulina Luna’s post explaining the action she just took:

I just referred the sanctuary city mayors to the Department of Justice for CRIMINAL investigations based on evidence from their own comments and policies, proving that they were breaking federal law.

Open borders ideologies hurt people on both sides. If you hold federal office and are breaking the law, you’ll be criminally investigated by the DOJ.

Bravo!

No more talking….

No more “sternly written letters”….

Just action.

Action and prosecutions.

That’s all they will understand.

The Hill had more details:

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) told four Democratic mayors before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee that she would criminally refer them to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for upholding sanctuary city policies on Wednesday.

“To me after this line of questioning, it’s very clear that these policies that you have all implicated are active and alive and well in your cities are in direct violation with Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324 and is a federal offense,” Luna said, referring to a federal law that prohibits bringing in and harboring migrants without legal status.

“You all speak about a broken immigration system and yet here you guys are aiding and abetting in that entire process,” she continued. “I do not think you guys are bad people but I think you are ideologically misled which is why, unfortunately based on your responses, I’m going to be criminally referring you to the Department of Justice for investigation, and as soon as I leave here, these will be going over to [Attorney General] Pam Bondi.”

“If you guys continue doing what you’re doing, you’re not going to help anyone,” she said, adding that she was not doing this to “bully” the mayors, but believed the policies were hurting the American people.

A criminal referral is a formal notice to the DOJ that a lawmaker or committee believes criminal conduct may have taken place, but it does not mean the DOJ will open an investigation.

Luna made the remarks at a House Oversight Committee hearing featuring Boston Mayor Michelle Wu (D), New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D), Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) and Denver Mayor Mike Johnston (D). All four cities are considered sanctuary cities.

Break the law, go to prison.

It’s that simple.

No exceptions, no one is above the law.

ESPECIALLY those who have been put into positions of leadership:
