House PASSES bill to deport illegal migrants arrested for driving drunk after 150 Dems vote NO
February 2, 2024 | Frieda Powers

Illegal migrants arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol can now be deported thanks to a new bill passed in the House on Thursday.

The Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act passed despite the refusal of 150 Democrats to support it. The amendment to the Immigration and Nationality Act was supported by 274 lawmakers – which included only 59 Democrats –  who voted in favor of deporting any migrant arrested for drunk driving.

The bill, introduced by Rep. Barry Moore, R-Ala., would also ensure that those arrested and deported are not allowed back into the U.S.

150 Democrats Vote for Illegal Alien Drunks to Be Driving on American Streets!

Why must we pass a bill to do something already codified in law?

If they are here illegally deport them. It makes no difference what they are doing when we catch them.

@Bigun

I agree,but IF passing another law specific to illegal aliens is what it takes to get them deported,that's what we need to do.
