AMAC Supports the No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act

Sanctuary cities use taxpayer resources to benefit non-citizens violating our law and national sovereignty. This creates significant burdens for communities across the country, prioritizing resources for illegal immigrants while straining local infrastructure and compromising public safety. These jurisdictions have chosen to defy federal immigration laws and, as a result, should bear the financial consequences of their actions. Taxpaying citizens should not be forced to subsidize the food, shelter, healthcare, and legal services provided to migrants in sanctuary cities—especially when these policies directly undermine the rule of law. The passage of this bill in the 118th Congress reflects its bipartisan appeal and underscores the urgency of addressing this issue in the 119th Congress.

AMAC Supports the POLICE Act in 2025

The Protect Our Law Enforcement with Immigration Control and Enforcement (POLICE) Act, ensures that assaulting a law enforcement officer becomes a deportable offense under the Immigration and Nationality Act. This legislation is not only timely but also necessary to address the growing risks faced by our brave law enforcement officers due to the ongoing border crisis. It sends a powerful message that non-citizen perpetrated violence against law enforcement will not be tolerated. AMAC strongly supports the reintroduction and passage of this bill.

Moreover, it ensures that America remains a reliable energy producer, even as external challenges and misguided federal policies threaten its future. This vital legislation demonstrates a commitment to safeguarding the American energy industry, which is critical to our economy, national security, and energy independence.

Calls-to-Action

California AMAC Members Tell State Representatives To Focus on Wildfires And Stop Anti-Trump Special Session

California Governor Gavin Newsom called for a special legislative session in an unprecedented and divisive move targeting former President Trump. While Southern California faces devastating wildfires, this special session diverts precious time and resources away from urgent priorities like protecting Californians, aiding wildfire victims, and preventing further disaster.

So far, nearly 900 AMAC members reminded CA state representatives that their duty is to serve all Californians. Wildfires are destroying homes, displacing families, and taking lives. The legislature should ensure that firefighting efforts are adequately funded, wildfire prevention programs are strengthened, and impacted communities get the support they need.

We must reject the misuse of legislative power for political vendettas.

Term of the Week: Peaceful Transfer of Power

Every four years, on January 20th, the president-elect takes the oath of office during the inauguration. The leader of the executive branch changes from one executive to another.

In America, this is a peaceful transition.

“It is a tribute to our forefathers that a successful election leads, time and again, to a peaceful transition of power to the successor. This transfer of power is a fine-tuned machine that ensures that there is always someone to lead the country.” (“Peaceful Transition of Power.” National Archives, 3 Oct. 2022, www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/2000/winter/inaugurations.)
