U.S. Rep. Doug Collins, R-Gainesville, joined House Speaker Paul Ryan and other federal officials Thursday to promote two immigration bills that President Donald Trump promises to sign once they reach his desk. Ryan called Collins to the podium during his weekly news conference to talk about the two immigration bills — Kate’s Law and No Sanctuary for Criminals Act, both of which the House approved later in the day. The first bill would add more severe penalties for repeat illegal entry into the United States, while the second would attempt to withhold federal funding to jurisdictions that don’t cooperate with federal immigration enforcement in so-called “sanctuary cities.”
