Congresswoman Nancy Mace of South Carolina's 1st District has issued a statement regarding the signing of the Laken Riley Act into law by President Donald Trump. This marks Trump's first legislative action as president.
"President Trump just signed the Laken Riley Act into law—his first act as president and a huge win for American women and girls. This should’ve happened last Congress, but the pro-criminal-illegal-alien Left refused, and kept welcoming rapists, terrorists, and murderers into our country," stated Rep. Nancy Mace. "We cosponsored this bill because cartel-affiliated gangbangers like Jose Ibarra have no place in our country. Today, this disgrace ends, and the era of coddling illegal alien murderers is over."
The legislation, known formally as H.R. 29, aims to address issues related to border security and the presence of criminal illegal aliens in the United States. The bill was passed by the House on January 7th and subsequently cleared the Senate under designation S.5 on January 20th.
