145 House Democrats Vote Against Bill Requiring Deportation Of Illegal Migrants Convicted Of Sex Crimes

“This isn’t complicated — keeping criminal illegal aliens out of our country and off our streets is just common sense,” Mace added. “Women should be able to walk down the street without fear, and families should feel safe in their own neighborhoods.”

Democratic lawmakers fiercely opposed Mace’s legislation requiring the deportation of illegal migrants who commit sexual violence, alleging that the bill will also lead to the deportation of victims of domestic violence who are illegal migrants or foreign nationals.

“No family should endure the heartbreak the families of Laken Riley, Mollie Tibbetts, Karina Vetrano, and Maddie Hines have experienced. Every woman and every girl deserves to feel safe in their own community,” Mace said following the bill’s passage. “The radical left doesn’t agree with this. One hundred and forty-five liberals in Congress love illegal immigrant rapists and murders. House Republicans united to expand protections for women and put the safety of Americans first.”

“This is once again a bill that widens the highway to President Donald Trump’s mass deportation plans,” Democratic Washington Rep. Pramila Jayapal, chair of the congressional progressive caucus, said during floor debate on the bill.

A total of 145 House Democrats voted against legislation Thursday that would require the deportation of illegal migrants who commit sexual offenses or domestic violence in the United States.
