A House Judiciary Committee hearing on sanctuary city policies turns contentious as Reps. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) and Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) argue over immigration enforcement and sanctuary jurisdictions. Multiple outlets report the confrontation escalates into a shouting match during Lawler’s appearance before the panel, where he condemns sanctuary city policies and frames them as contributing to illegal immigration issues. The exchange becomes personal as Raskin tells Lawler to leave, with one report quoting Raskin saying, “get the hell out of here.” Lawler responds by accusing Raskin of acting improperly, including statements that Raskin is “a disgrace” and urging him to “grow the f--- up,” according to coverage. Other reporting describes the hearing atmosphere as chaotic, with members shouting over one another shortly after Lawler begins his remarks. The reports also include references to public testimony or related remarks connected to sanctuary reforms, but the primary focus across outlets is the sustained verbal clash between the two lawmakers during the hearing.
