House GOP proposes memorial for immigration victims

Rep. Abe Hamadeh (R-Ariz.) unveiled 'The American Border Story Memorial Act' at a Friday Capitol-area event, proposing a permanent national memorial in Washington, D.C., to honor U.S. citizens and lawful residents killed by individuals unlawfully present in the U.S. Joined by 'Angel families' and allies including Rep. Andy Biggs and the group The American Border Story, sponsors said the memorial would highlight the human cost of immigration policy while contrasting approaches under recent administrations.
