Summary
Tammy Nobles told lawmakers Wednesday that families of Americans killed by immigrants in the country illegally will keep confronting Congress until it acts on sanctuary city policies and illegal immigration.
House testimony this week centered on two deaths: Nobles' daughter Kayla Hamilton, who was raped and strangled in 2022, and 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, allegedly shot and killed in Chicago earlier this year by an illegal immigrant.
Jessica Gorman's tearful Tuesday appearance before a House Judiciary subcommittee sharpened the pressure, as she accused sanctuary city leaders of failing to protect her daughter and urged lawmakers to "choose" American citizens.
Nobles said she has repeatedly brought Kayla's case to Congress and argued condolences from Democratic lawmakers are not enough, casting the hearing as part of a broader push to tighten immigration enforcement.
