RELEASE: Tester Backing Catch and Release, Open Border Agenda 

 

HELENA, Mont. - Matt Rosendale, the Republican nominee in Montana’s U.S. Senate race, blasted Senator Tester for supporting Sen. Feinstein’s catch and release bill and pursuing an open-border agenda:

 

 

“By backing the Feinstein bill, Senator Tester is putting into law the failed and dangerous policy of catch and release and bringing us closer to enacting the far-left’s open border agenda. At the end of the day, Tester’s not for enforcing our laws, he wants to let illegal immigrants flow freely into this country without consequence. He’s for protecting illegal immigrants and giving them sanctuary in cities across our nation. This isn’t just dangerous, it’s unacceptable. I don’t want to see families separated so that’s why we need to get tough and enforce our laws. We need to bring law and order back to this country, secure our border, and build that wall. We have an obligation to put America first – not illegal immigrants.”

 

 

Matt Rosendale supports S. 3091, the Protect Kids and Parents Act introduced yesterday by Senator Ted Cruz.

 

Background:

  • In the past three years, Jon Tester voted not once, twice, but three times AGAINST ending sanctuary cities. 
  • During the most recent vote, several red-state Democrats joined Republicans to end sanctuary cities, Jon Tester wasn’t one of those Democrats – he PROTECTED sanctuary cities!
  • Earlier this year, Jon Tester voted TWICE to SHUT DOWN the federal government in an extreme liberal attempt to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants.
  • In 2015 and 2016, Jon Tester voted AGAINST Kate’s Law, a bill to establish mandatory minimums for deported illegal immigrant felons who re-enter the U.S.
