Take no chances on violent non-citizens: Begich III co-sponsors bill to deport alien criminals

Men, women and children in America are increasingly facing assaults by illegal immigrants — crimes like rape and murder, which have already become a widespread across Europe and the United Kingdom, due to unchecked immigration from northern African muslim men.

Alaska Congressman Nick Begich III, in office for just two weeks, has cosponsored the “Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act,” legislation aimed at strengthening U.S. border security and ensuring that foreign nationals, including illegal immigrants, who commit violent crimes are held accountable and deported.

“Securing our borders is both a matter of national security and a matter of protecting those closest to us—family, friends, colleagues, neighbors, and indeed all Americans,” Begich said. “Foreign nationals who commit domestic violence, stalking, child abuse, child neglect, or child abandonment have no place in our nation, and I am proud to support a bill that gives law enforcement the tools they need to make our nation safer. This bill sends a clear message that foreign nationals who choose to commit violence in our nation are not welcome in our nation.”

H.R. 30 gives law enforcement additional tools to safeguard communities and protect American citizens and their families.

“No family should endure the heartbreak the families of Laken Riley, Mollie Tibbetts, Karina Vetrano, and Maddie Hines have experienced. Every woman and every girl deserves to feel safe in their own community,” said Rep. Nancy Mace, prime sponsor of the legislation.

“The radical left doesn’t agree with this. 145 liberals in Congress love illegal immigrant rapists and murders,” she said. “House Republicans united to expand protections for women and put the safety of Americans first. This isn’t complicated—keeping criminal illegal aliens out of our country and off our streets is just common sense. Women should be able to walk down the street without fear, and families should feel safe in their own neighborhoods.”

The bill add clauses to the Immigration and Nationality Act, such as:

  • Sex offenses: A non-citizen convicted of, admitting to committing, or one who has committed acts constituting a sex offense would be considered inadmissible to the United States.
  • Domestic violence and similar crimes: Any non-citizen convicted of or admitting to committing the following crimes would be inadmissible:
    • A crime of domestic violence
    • A crime of stalking
    • A crime of child abuse, neglect, or abandonment
    • A violation of a protection order concerning threats of violence or harassment

The act amends the deportable offenses section of the Immigration and Nationality Act to include:

  • Sex offenses: Non-citizens who have been convicted of a sex offense will be classified as deportable.
  • Domestic violence and similar crimes: Non-citizens convicted of domestic violence, as defined in applicable laws, would be deportable, whether or not the jurisdiction has federal grant funding related to violent crime control.
