On Thursday, the House passed a bill that would see illegal immigrants convicted of sex crimes be deported from the country. 145 Democrats voted against the bill.
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."

Too bad The stupid Party never bothers to post the NAMES of the democrats who vote this way.
Dems are not "soft" on crime like we always used to say.
They are actively in favor of it (as a war strategy).
I find it totally disgusting that ALL demonrats didn’t vote for this bill like all pubbies did.
A pox on their House!
I pray they don’t live to regret their NO vote.
I can think of at least two other lists that need to be released. Next week would be the perfect time!
Maybe those 145 support that sort of thing.
Those 145 Democrats are what we call “LEWDZERS”
