() Republican Reps. Nancy Mace of South Carolina and Brandon Gill of Texas have introduced a new bill in response to the protests in Los Angeles.

The Lawless Cities Accountability Act would block federal funding from any city that refuses federal help and withdraws law enforcement during violent protests.

“This is part of Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda,” Mace told . “If you are a sanctuary city and refusing the assistance of President Donald Trump, you should not get a dime of American taxpayer money.”

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, a Democrat, accused the Trump administration of provoking the ongoing protests in the city due to the recent ICE raids in Southern California.

Republican California Rep. Jay Obernolte told ‘s “The Hill” on Monday that California has a large number of Republican voters and that the entire state should not be punished by losing federal funds because of the protests. Mace said the bill is about restoring law and order to the country.

“We have to have pieces that you can negotiate with, you have to threaten sometimes,” Mace said. “You have Mayor Bass calling for an end to the deportations and raids, and that’s not an option. We have to use the tools in our toolbox to ensure that our mayors and governors are following the law in this country.”
