House Republicans are fast-tracking a bill that would dramatically raise the punishment for illegal immigrants caught attempting to enter the United States after being deported.
The Stop Illegal Entry Act was passed out of the House Judiciary Committee last week after being tweaked to include language from Rep.

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Brad Knott (NC-13) released the following statement condemning the violent riots in Los Angeles and the mass illegal immigrant invasion.
“The American people voted to end mass migration and for a secure border.

During almost a decade of successfully investigating and prosecuting illegal alien criminals, I found a troubling thread linking each case: A uniform lack of respect for American immigration laws among illegal aliens.
