Toomey is cosponsor of the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which would protect unborn babies 20 weeks and older from painful late abortions. In the Senate, Toomey is a strong advocate of law and order and he led the fight to end the dangerous policy of sanctuary cities, which is when a jurisdiction forbids its local law enforcement officers from working with federal officials to apprehend illegal immigrants, even when local police want to work with them.
