Cedar Lake– Randy Niemeyer, Lake County Councilman, and Republican Congressional Nominee for Indiana’s First District issued the following statement echoing support for Attorney General Todd Rokita's action to hold municipalities accountable to state law and ensure their compliance with federal immigration law:

“Our community's safety is paramount, and we must ensure that all municipalities in Indiana comply with state and federal laws. Sanctuary city policies undermine our legal system and jeopardize the safety of Americans. I stand with Attorney General Rokita in his efforts to enforce the law and protect our communities from the dangers posed by such policies.

"Frank Mrvan and Joe Biden’s open border policy has put the safety of our communities at risk. In Congress, I’ll fight to uphold the rule of law, work to secure the border, and stop the flow of illegal immigration. We must end the relentless influx of drugs and crime into our communities.

"Instead of wasting taxpayer dollars protecting the interests of illegal immigrants, we should be investing in our law enforcement to help them keep our streets safe and secure,” stated Niemeyer.
