Another win for women this week.
Ā
First, the House passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, and yesterday, we followed up by passing the Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Actāa good bill introduced by my colleague, Nancy Mace.
Ā
This legislation makes sure that illegal aliens convicted of heinous crimes like child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence are deported and kept out for good.
Ā
The Biden administrationās reckless open-border fiasco has allowed a whole host of dangerous illegal aliens to flood into our communities. While Iām confident President Trump will shore up this gaping hole in our national security very soon, we canāt wait for the day of reckoning; we need to address the chaos thatās on our doorstep right now.
Ā
And while you and I know this type of bill is plain common sense, the regular cast of characters on the Left voted against it. Youāre telling me they canāt get on board with deporting illegal aliens who rape and abuse women and children? Iām left scratching my head every dadgum time this happens, folks.Ā
Ā
It really boils down to a lack of accountability. You canāt clean up a mess you wonāt even admit to making, and Democrats are unwilling to look in the mirror and admit the colossal problem they created. Theyāre in denial, and because of that, weāve got 14 million people we know nothing about wandering this country.Ā Ā
Ā
Issues like this one are always a good reminder of why I came to Washington in the first place. This is so much bigger than everyday politicsāitās life or death.Ā
Ā
The American people deserve fighters who wonāt let up until the rest of the world knows weāre rolling up the welcome mat, and criminals wonāt find refuge here.
