OUTSTANDING: Wyoming Republican Rep. Harriet Hageman Introduces ‘No Student Visas for Sanctuary Cities Act’ |

In a bold move that underscores the ongoing political chess game over immigration policy, Conservative Republican Representative Harriet Hageman from Wyoming has introduced a new piece of legislation designed to restrict student visas in sanctuary cities.

Hageman’s rise to prominence is notable; she unseated former Representative Liz Cheney two years ago in what many consider a landmark moment in Wyoming’s political history.

This legislative proposal is likely to be met with fierce opposition from Democrats, who critics argue prioritize the interests of undocumented individuals over those of American citizens. Nonetheless, it’s a measure that every Republican in Congress might rally behind.

Exclusive–Rep. Hageman Introduces ‘No Student Visas for Sanctuary Cities Act’

Hageman has unveiled a new bill aimed at holding sanctuary cities “accountable” for their perceived disregard of federal immigration laws. According to exclusive details obtained by Breitbart News, the “No Student Visas for Sanctuary Cities Act” was introduced on Wednesday. This legislation seeks to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to prevent student visas from being issued to institutions located in these jurisdictions.

“Leftist advocates of open borders have infiltrated many states and municipalities, leading local leaders to undermine the rule of law,” Hageman articulated. “Rather than safeguarding their own citizens, officials in sanctuary cities have chosen to protect those residing unlawfully, including individuals affiliated with international cartels and other criminal organizations.”

Following her victory over Cheney, Hageman now represents Wyoming’s at-large congressional district. She elaborated that “the prohibition of student visas serves as a crucial accountability measure, pressuring those who obstruct justice to adhere to the regulations established by the representatives of the American populace.”

The Trump administration has already rescinded thousands of student visas, and with Hageman’s proposal, we see a shift in strategy—suggesting a reduction in visa allocations to educational institutions in cities that flout immigration laws.
