Cracking down on sanctuary cities, deporting immigrants who’ve overstayed their visas and installing more bases at the border would be key elements to Jeb Bush’s immigration policy if elected president, the former Florida governor wrote Monday in a Medium post.
Bush, who’s made immigration a key focus of his White House bid, outlined six proposals to enhance border security and enforce immigration law, arguing that all six would receive “bipartisan support in Congress.”
Sanctuary cities, which ignore federal requests to detain people found to be in the country illegally, have gained renewed attention after a San Francisco woman was killed last month allegedly by an undocumented immigrant who had been repeatedly deported.
