House Passes H.R. 30 to Deport Illegal Immigrants Convicted of Sex Crimes and Domestic Violence, Despite 145 Democrats' Opposition
Jan 16, 2025, 05:10 PM
The U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 30, the 'Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act,' with a vote of 274 to 145. Introduced by Representative Nancy Mace, the legislation aims to enhance restrictions on illegal immigrants who have committed serious felonies, particularly those involving sexual offenses or domestic violence. Under the bill, such individuals would be deemed inadmissible to the U.S. and subject to deportation. While the bill received bipartisan support, with 213 Republicans and 61 Democrats voting in favor, 145 Democrats opposed it. The opposition argued that the bill could harm victims of domestic abuse and broaden the definition of domestic violence detrimentally. The passage of this bill reflects ongoing debates over immigration policy and public safety in the U.S.
