Angel Dad Jason Riley, whose 22-year-old daughter Laken Riley was murdered, allegedly by the hands of an unlawful alien, is looking on Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) to “declare an invasion” and pleading with the state’s lawmakers to “protect citizens from this illegal invasion.”
While talking on the Georgia State Capitol on Wednesday, Jason Riley urged lawmakers to take motion in cracking down on unlawful immigration throughout the state. More than half 1,000,000 unlawful aliens now reside in Georgia.
“God gave me a beautiful daughter to father, protect, provide for, and nurture. A man with an evil heart stole her life. He was in this country and in this state illegally,” Jason Riley advised lawmakers. “My vision for every senator in this chamber is that you protect citizens from this illegal invasion.”
In addition, Jason Riley requested Kemp to declare an invasion so legislation enforcement in Georgia has clearer authority to flip unlawful aliens over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) brokers.
“Please recognize that over a million illegal aliens are in this state and making families nervous,” Jason Riley mentioned:
Please acknowledge that Athens-Clarke is a sanctuary metropolis and this coverage and the dearth of motion led to the homicide of my daughter … Gov. Kemp, please declare an invasion to detain and deport legal illegals so we will forestall future households from these tragedies. [Emphasis added]
Earlier this month, House Republicans and some dozen Democrats handed Rep. Mike Collins’s (R-GA) “Laken Riley Act” to require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to take into custody unlawful aliens arrested, charged, or convicted for housebreaking, theft, larceny, or shoplifting.
Last week, although, Senate Democrats blocked the Laken Riley Act from being moved forward for passage within the Senate. As a consequence, Sen. Ted Budd (R-NC) mentioned he’ll introduce the laws as an modification to a funding invoice that the chamber should go.
“We simply don’t believe that another American family needs to experience the tragedy like the one that befell the Riley family,” Budd mentioned. “And that’s why we need to pass the Laken Riley Act today.”
On Feb. 22, nursing scholar Laken Riley was discovered murdered in a wooded space on the University of Georgia campus after she had gone for a morning run. The following day, Ibarra, from Venezuela, was arrested and charged together with her homicide.
