A California lawmaker opposed a bill to make the state a "sanctuary" for illegal immigrants, warning that the bill will have consequences.
"By passing this today you'll be kicking the president right in the groin, and I can imagine he's going to strike back," said Republican State Sen. Jeff Stone of Temecula.
The bill is heading to the state Assembly after it was approved by a vote of 27-12 in the state Senate. Stone and others argued the measure is a threat to public safety.
