                            SANCTUARY STATES

  (Mr. LaMALFA asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LaMALFA. Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend the leadership many 
California elected officials showed this week in coming to Washington, 
D.C. and sitting down with President Trump to talk about the problems 
and dangers as a result of actions taken by Sacramento Democrats in a 
sanctuary State and what it has done for the State of California. I 
commend them for bringing the truth and the clear danger this means for 
our communities in the State of California, and across the country.
  One of the leaders in my own district, District Attorney Stacey 
Montgomery, as well as a friend of mine, Assemblywoman Melissa Mendez, 
and many others, stepped forward to bring a strong message of how this 
endangers Californians and sends the wrong signal to those who want to 
immigrate properly to this country. Mr. Speaker, I appreciate that 
effort by those leaders.
