  • GOP leaders are moving ahead with the Laken Riley Act. What's in the bill? - Laken Riley was brutally murdered in February while on a run

The Laken Riley Act, introduced by Republican leaders in response to the murder of Laken Riley by an undocumented immigrant, aims to address immigration enforcement issues. The bill, named after the 22-year-old nursing student killed in Georgia, would require Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to detain undocumented immigrants who commit theft or burglary offenses. It also allows states to sue the federal government for failing to enforce immigration laws. This legislative move comes amidst heightened political debate over immigration, with GOP leaders like Rep. Mike Collins and Sen. Ted Budd pushing for stricter immigration policies. The act has garnered support from conservative groups and some Democrats, reflecting a broader call for enhanced border security and accountability in immigration enforcement. However, it also faces criticism for potentially exacerbating tensions between state and federal authorities over immigration jurisdiction.
