To almost no national notice that I can see, Representative Tom Tancredo scored a great victory on Friday morning:
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. House of Representatives this morning voted to withhold federal emergency services funding for "sanctuary cities" that protect illegal immigrants. Anti-illegal immigration champion Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., sponsored the measure, which he says would apply to cities such as Denver and Boulder. He was elated by its passage, which stunned critics and supporters alike … .Tancredo said he thinks his amendment is an indicator that the House would crush the reform plan if it passes in the Senate.
