158 House Dems vote against deporting illegal migrants convicted of sex crimes

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., on Wednesday called out over 150 of her Democratic colleagues for voting against her bill to deport migrants convicted of sex crimes.

The measure, titled the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act, would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make those who commit sex crimes inadmissible and deportable. It passed the House Wednesday, but was not unanimously supported by all lawmakers.

“158 Left-wing members of Congress just voted against deporting rapists, pedophiles and murderers of women and kids,” Rep. Mace wrote via X.

Among those voting no were Reps. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., Cori Bush, D-Mo., Ayanna Pressley, D-Ma., Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

Supporting the bill were 51 Democrats. All 215 present Republicans voted in favor.
