By Cristina Marcos - 11/01/17 07:07 PM EDT
The House passed legislation on Wednesday that would allow the State Department to revoke passports for people involved with foreign terrorist groups.
Passage of the measure, by voice vote, came a day after a man drove a truck into a school bus in New York City.
The suspect, Sayfullo Saipov, allegedly drew inspiration from the Islamic State in carrying out the attack, which killed eight people and injured over a dozen others. Saipov came to the U.S. from Uzbekistan through the diversity visa program in 2010.
