Bristol County, Massachusetts, Sheriff Thomas Hodgson, who's leading the push, explained on "Your World" that Congress' inaction on illegal immigration is impacting law enforcement's ability to keep their communities safe.
He particularly took aim at sanctuary policies, which he said undermine cooperation between local, state and federal law enforcement, making it harder for America’s sheriffs to protect citizens and legal residents.
"Enough is enough," Hodgson said. "And the sheriffs are speaking up and joining together with our constituents in our communities and saying, 'You need to now act, Congress. And let's stop with this whole blueprint of inaction.'"
