Rep. Gabe Evans (R-CO-8)

"Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (R-MI) announced he was joined by over 100 of his colleagues on a letter recently sent to House Appropriations leaders requesting an H-2A visa guestworker wage freeze in upcoming appropriations legislation. This simple policy fix would lower input costs for the agricultural community and save family farms across the nation. The level of support for freezing the H-2A wage rate is significant because it is bipartisan and represents the majority of the House Republican Conference (111). Last Congress, Huizenga led the charge to help family farms and achieved a policy win in legislation that passed the House Appropriations Committee."

Today Congressman Gabe Evans issued the following statement on the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice suing Denver and Colorado for standing in the way of strong federal immigration policies. 

 “I have been screaming from the rooftops that Colorado’s sanctuary state laws are crippling local law enforcement and making families feel unsafe. It’s imperative Republicans push back on Colorado’s sanctuary laws that make our state the third most dangerous in the nation, create a safe haven for criminals and drug traffickers, all while putting families in harm’s way. I applaud this effort to hold sanctuary policies accountable,” said Congressman Evans. 

 The Trump Administration specifically cites Colorado state legislation HB19-1124, SB21-131, and HB23-1100 as the reason for the lawsuit, which are the same sanctuary state laws Congressman Evans called out in a letter to Governor Polis and are specifically targeted by Evans' UPLIFT Act. Evans recently put the screws to Denver Mayor Mike Johnston about Colorado’s weak immigration policies that have led to a safe haven for violent immigrants, such as Tren de Aragua choosing Denver as their headquarters.  

 Americans support strong immigration policies, and Congressman Evans has been steadfast in calling for the take down of violent immigrant gangs and pushing back on the crimes and drugs they bring to Colorado.
