He is indeed the catalyst for getting this far with the bill. We've been there before.......10 years ago. I just posted an article.

I believe the name of the bill has remained the same as way back then.

Challenge is getting Senate to pass and Obama to sign. That would be impressive.

And he’s not even elected yet, but is having a positive influence.

Of course Barry and the dems will scream and cry like little girls over it.

This Rep from Texas is appropriations chair for DOJ and found in documents he alone had the power of the purse. He told DOJ they had to follow the law or he would cut their budget. He stopped the sanctuary cities - told Loretta Lynch to uphold the law or she would lose funding for the top earners at the DOJ, but he would still fund the border patrol.
Lynch complied- the link below has hypertext links to videos of the hearing and letter from the DOJ.

ping to #52 and article.

your previous post - excerpt:

So Culberson, Chair of House Appropriations, reveals that he ALONE has purse string power over the Federal budget which practially no one knew.

The only reason why the House fails to utilize more purse string powers is due to legislation that is self-shackling [most likely dating back to FDR’s New Deal agenda] as well as the senate hamstringing legislation through unconstitutional treaties.

Carry Okie is actually Mark Edward Vande Pol, a published author who writes about the US government. He wrote about how treaties have bastardized the Constitution, such as through empowering the EPA ...

Good but an indication of how sorry our system/representatives are. The cities are breaking the laws of the Nation and all they do is pass an Act to fine them for it. In a sane world the politicians in those cities would be introduced to Leavenworth instead of having their cities fined (no real punishment for them except if the residents opt to not reelect them).

Not as good as it should be. Why law enforcement funds? Cut all the federal funds to sanctuary cities off period. Make certain they understand they will not be made whole for the period they did not comply. Far, far past time to take off the kit gloves.

Donald Trump donated thousands of dollars to extreme leftists in California, such as Jerry Brown and Gavin Newsom. But that was last decade, which was part of the “ancient” history before Trump’s cathartic conversion. More recently, while conservatives were fighting the Gang of Eight amnesty bill and Obama’s sanctuary nation policies, Trump donated $6,000 to Kamala Harris, the California attorney general who is, perhaps, one of the most notorious supporters of sanctuary cities in the country. In 2014, his daughter, Ivanka, also cut a $2,000 check to the queen of sanctuary cities. That was after Harris championed the despicable Trust Act, which turned the entire state of California into a sanctuary for illegals. Coupled with her activities during her first term as attorney general and her prior work as San Francisco district attorney, Harris is one of the leftists most responsible for the policies that led to the murder of Kate Steinle. - See more at: https://www.conservativereview.com/commentary/2016/03/trump-donated-to-queen-of-sanctuary-cities#sthash.gQuv3HWC.dpuf
