Almost 200 House Dems vote against deporting people who commit welfare fraud
FoxNews ^ | 3/18/26 | Adam Pack , Elizabeth Elkind

The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation Wednesday to crack down on illegal immigrants participating in welfare fraud despite fierce objections from most Democrats.

Lawmakers voted 231-186 to approve the Deporting Fraudsters Act, with 186 Democrats opposing the measure.

The bill, sponsored by Rep. David Taylor, R-Ohio, would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to explicitly define fraud as a deportable offense. Republicans said the legislation is necessary to ensure that noncitizens who steal taxpayer dollars are no longer eligible for immigration relief services or legal protections.

At some point, taxpayers are going to take a stand and say "we aren't going to take it anymore".

Who needs AI?

Democrats are literally writing the commercials to be used against them in fall.

Will the dumb clucks running in the Republican wing of the uniparty be smart enough to use them.

I wouldn’t bet they will.

Welfare fraud is a feature, not a bug, in the Dem vote-getting scheme. Bring in illegals, get them on Welfare illegally, then get them to vote for the Dems illegally.

A coworker decided to talk about immigration in the office the other day. Obviously a bad move but they felt so compelled. I was astounded at their insane logic. They were explaining how the whole reason illegals have not been deported is because of Trump... because he needs the illegals for slave labor and to maintain their appearance that they want that they are doing something about illegal immigration and that all illegals here now have been Trumps fault. All of us (and not all of us were conservative) just stared at him aghast. Even the liberal workers were confused. That’s the level of stupid we are dealing with.

If they are here illegally, I don’t care what they did or did not do. Deport them.

And apparently democrats voters love fraud too. I realize Democrat voters come in several categories, probably the largest of which is “dumbass envious loser too lazy to even steal for themselves and rely on the government to do it for them”. But you’d think these people would not want competition to guzzle at the taxpayer funded welfare trough. Then there are the illegal alien voters who are told fraud is ok because as long as democrats are in power we won’t investigate fraud. - this is the segment that the 186 seditionists are pandering to and protecting. No matter how much you loath and despise Democrats it is not enough.

Neither would I.

The Dems are having mental breakdowns. Including the wimps pretending to be Republican.

“At some point taxpayers are going too...”

Why is Congress voting on a law that says, “enforce the law?

Fraud is illegal. Residing in the US without a visa or a work permit is illegal.

Congress has passed those laws already. Several times.
NO NEW LAWS ARE REQUIRED. GET THEM ALL OUT RIGHT NOW.

This does not require Congress to do a thing.

Almost 200-come on man. All it means is that there are a lot more than 200 who are the opposite. Just point out which ones are in the contested seats and point out who the republicans are, if any. That’s all that matters. Illian Omar-we all know what her vote in. Get her on immigration violations.
