"I have to tell you honestly, our California voters and people across the nation deserve transparency," Sanchez told Brian Kilmeade on Tuesday. "They deserve… to know their hardworking taxpayer dollars are going, especially times that just now, are going to things that we want to reward in California, not to expand a program that would have allowed convicted illegal immigrants to stay here.
"It blows my mind," she continued. "Honestly, it was one of those bills that you have to read two to three times, and it was shocking all the way through."
