                               RESOLUTION

 
  Condemning prosecution policies that give preferential treatment to 
             foreign nationals over United States citizens.

Whereas releasing criminal aliens onto American streets instead of prosecuting 
        them endangers communities and undermines public safety;
Whereas criminal aliens impose grave costs on American society;
Whereas State and local prosecutors in sanctuary jurisdictions across the United 
        States have enacted policies that allow foreign nationals to receive 
        additional favorable considerations;
Whereas these additional considerations are not granted to United States 
        citizens;
Whereas prosecution policies that favor foreign nationals, including illegal 
        alien criminals, over United States citizens violate Federal civil 
        rights law;
Whereas crime committed by illegal alien criminals should be prosecuted to the 
        fullest extent of the law;
Whereas every crime committed by an illegal alien is a preventable tragedy; and
Whereas families who are re-victimized by prosecutors who prioritize the comfort 
        of criminal aliens over justice for victims of crime deserve our 
        sympathy: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) condemns prosecution policies that give preferential 
        treatment to foreign nationals over United States citizens;
            (2) affirms the civil rights of all Americans, which 
        guarantee equal treatment under the law;
            (3) applauds prosecutors who uphold law and order by 
        prosecuting all criminals, regardless of immigration status, to 
        the fullest extent of the law;
            (4) implores State and local prosecutors to prosecute crime 
        in American communities without consideration of an 
        individual's immigration status; and
            (5) applauds the Department of Justice for investigating 
        pro-illegal alien prosecution policies in sanctuary 
        jurisdictions.
                                 <all>
Condemning prosecution policies that give preferential treatment to foreign nationals over United States citizens.
