Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited Springfield on Wednesday to address concerns about sanctuary policies in Illinois. She claimed these policies have resulted in increased violence against American citizens, including crimes such as rape, sexual assault, murder, and shoplifting. According to Noem, the policies protect illegal aliens from facing consequences for their actions.

During a legislative session, House Minority Leader Tony McCombie expressed gratitude to Secretary Noem for her visit and for drawing attention to what he described as dangerous sanctuary policies in the state. McCombie stressed the importance of prioritizing the safety and well-being of Illinois families by stating the need to “put Illinois families first!”
