Arrington Fights Back Against Far-Left Officials Targeting Immigration Enforcement
Dec. 12, 2025

“Any state or local leader who arrests federal agents for enforcing immigration law are abandoning the heart of constitutional order, aiding and abetting criminal illegal aliens, and fueling the perverse incentives that drive illegal immigration,” said Chairman Arrington. “My Safeguarding Homeland Immigration Enforcement from Local Detention (SHIELD) Act stands up for the rule of law and pushes back on far-Left radicals by cutting off every federal dollar to any jurisdiction that obstructs or prosecutes our officers - even once - carrying out their critical security responsibilities. I’m proud to lead the fight to support our federal officers and hold lawless politicians who undermine the safety and security of the United States fully accountable.” 

“I am proud to stand with my friend Representative Arrington in our shared fight to protect Americans from violent illegal aliens,” said Representative Tim Burchett  (TN-02). “The SHIELD Act prevents liberal municipalities from obstructing federal immigration enforcement by stripping their federal funding. No city or state government should be able to subvert the Trump Administration's goal of deporting the millions of illegals that came into our country under President Biden.”

“Federal immigration officers must be able to carry out their duties without intimidation from activist officials who undermine federal law,” said Representative Claudia Tenney (NY-24). “The SHIELD Act reinforces the constitutional authority of the federal government by cutting off federal funds to any jurisdiction that targets or obstructs ICE agents. This common sense legislation strengthens the rule of law and safeguards those who protect our communities.”

“As a cosponsor of the SHIELD Act, I am committed to ensuring that federal immigration enforcement officers can carry out their duties without interference from state or local governments,” said Representative Rich McCormick (GA-07). “Immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility, and no jurisdiction should be allowed to arrest, prosecute, or obstruct federal officers for simply doing their jobs. Upholding the rule of law and protecting the men and women enforcing our immigration laws is essential to public safety and the security of our nation.”

“Our immigration agents put their lives on the line every day to uphold the rule of law,” said Representative Glenn Grothman (WI-06). “We’re facing a constitutional crisis when local governments try to block federal agents from enforcing our immigration laws. Every country has immigration laws, and we cannot remain a nation if ours aren’t enforced. Chairman Arrington’s SHIELD Act draws a clear line: if you undermine federal immigration enforcement, you lose federal dollars. This legislation protects our ICE agents and pushes back on local officials who interfere with enforcement. I’m proud to support it.”

“Federal agents must be able to protect Americans from illegal aliens without threat of arrest by liberal elected officials,” said Representative Clay Higgins (LA-03). “President Trump has delivered the most secure border in our nation's history. We shall continue strong immigration enforcement. I'd like to thank Chairman Arrington for taking the lead on this legislation.”

“I’m proud to support the Safeguarding Homeland Immigration Enforcement from Local Detention (SHIELD) Act that puts a stop to radical state and local officials threatening to arrest or prosecute federal immigration agents for enforcing the law,” said Representative Keith Self (TX-03). “Under this bill, any jurisdiction that dares to obstruct ICE or Border Patrol officers will lose every penny of federal funding—no exceptions. If politicians providing sanctuary to criminals wage war on federal law enforcement, they will be doing it without a single dollar of taxpayer money from hardworking Americans. Our brave agents risk their lives to secure the border and remove dangerous criminals; the least we can do is make sure rogue officials can’t throw them in jail for doing their jobs.”

Congressman Rich McCormick Introduces the States Taking Accountability for Troops Engaged in Safety (STATES) Act
June 17, 2025

"If a state’s leaders refuse to protect their own citizens and property, the rest of the country shouldn’t have to pick up the tab,"said Congressman McCormick. "This legislation makes it clear: if you encourage lawlessness or fail to stop it, you pay for the consequences. Taxpayers in Georgia, Texas, Florida, and beyond should not be on the hook for California’s chaos."

Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, Colleagues Send Bipartisan Letter to Secretary Marco Rubio Calling for a Streamlined H-1B Visa Renewal Process

Representative Roy reintroduces the Border Safety and Security Act
Jan. 7, 2025

"Today, Representative Roy reintroduced the Border Safety and Security Act, a bill providing a framework for the Trump Administration and future administrations to secure our southern border and stop the release of illegal aliens into our communities. Americans have suffered for four years under the worst border security crisis in recent American history. 
“The American people have endured the worst border crisis in recent history for the past four years due to the Biden Administration's willful refusal to secure the border,” Congressman Roy said at the introduction. “Millions of illegal aliens are now in the country and we will feel the impacts of this disaster for years to come."
