A bipartisan group of lawmakers voted for the bill, with the legislation passing with 274 votes. All present Republicans voted for the bill.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) introduced the bill in the 118th Congress, but it was not taken up by the then-Democrat-controlled Senate. 158 Democrats voted against the bill at that time, Fox News reported.
Mace wrote after the bill passed, "More of our colleagues from the Left side of the aisle voted to pass HR 30 this time around because they have no elections coming up this year, and no open-borders presidential candidate to defend. House GOP never wavered on our priorities to stand with women. The Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act passed 274-145."
Mace said during debate on the bill, "Our country has been ravaged by a horror of illegal immigrants…violently raping American women and girls. I know the lifelong scars, the irreversible scars, these heinous crimes leave behind."
In addition to deporting illegal immigrants convicted of sec crimes, the bill deems illegal immigrants who admit to or are convicted of domestic violence or sex-related charges inadmissible to the US.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said during debate on the bill Thursday morning that the bill "does absolutely nothing to address the needs of the American people" and "widens the highway to Donald Trump’s mass deportation plans." She claimed the bill would "create a chilling effect for reporting future crimes" and "empower abusers to go after immigrant women and children."
In regards to the 145 Democrats who voted against the bill, Mace wrote, "The 145 members who voted against this bill should explain to Rachel Morin’s family why they feel no remorse for her murder." Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mother of five, was reported missing on August 6, 2023 after going for a run on a Maryland trail. Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, an illegal immigrant, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and first-degree rape.

No surprises here. Demonrats are the pedofiles of the government. They need all the cover they can get.
