Feds could pull police cash over illegal immigrant hires in new House bill

FIRST ON FOX: A Republican lawmaker is moving to block states from allowing people who come to the U.S. illegally or are residing here illegally to become police officers.

Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., introduced a bill this week to halt federal funds to law enforcement agencies that employ illegal immigrants as officers.

"My husband, Matt, he serves our community as a first responder, as a firefighter, and as a SWAT medic. And so we have really close ties to the law enforcement community. And it's been really frustrating to see the challenges that they've undergone in the last decade," Cammack told Fox News Digital in an interview Thursday.
