house 01/03/2025 - 119th Congress

We're working to enhance public safety through the Laken Riley Act, which mandates that the Secretary of Homeland Security detain aliens charged with theft-related offenses in the United States. This legislation aims to promptly manage and address such cases, reinforcing law enforcement processes while providing states the authority to seek injunctions if federal actions result in harm.
