    More than 150 Democrats voted against Republican Representative Nancy
    Mace's bill that would ensure undocumented immigrants convicted of sex
    offenses are deported or deemed inadmissible to the country.

    The Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act passed in a 266-158
    vote on Wednesday. Every Republican present voted for the bill, as did
    51 Democrats, while 158 Democrats voted against it.

    The bill would also deport or deem inadmissible to the country
    undocumented immigrants who have been convicted of, or admit to having committed, sex offenses, domestic violence, stalking, child abuse or
    violating a protection order.

    It comes as immigration is among the most important issues on the minds
    of voters ahead of November's election, with former President Donald
    Trump and Republicans repeatedly claiming that President Joe Biden's immigration policies have led to a spike in violent crime by people who
    are in the country illegally. Studies have generally found no link
    between immigration and violent crime.

    Mace told WCIV in Charleston, South Carolina, that the legislation will
    protect women across the country.

    "We are fed up with headlines about women losing their lives or becoming victims of assailants who trespassed into our country illegally under
    the Biden-Harris border crisis," Mace said. "This legislation sends a
    strong message: If you are an illegal who has committed acts of violence against women, you will not find sanctuary here."

    She said those opposing the bill "voted against deporting rapists,
    pedophiles and murderers of women and kids."

    Opponents of the bill said it was demonizing immigrants.

    Representative Pramila Jayapal said the bill would hurt survivors of
    domestic violence, whom she said are often arrested, charged and
    convicted along with their abusers.

    "Here we are again, debating another partisan bill that fearmongers
    about immigrants, instead of working together to fix the immigration
    system," Jayapal said during a debate on the bill.

    "I probably shouldn't be too surprised. Scapegoating immigrants and
    attempting to weaponize the crime of domestic violence is appearing to
    be a time-honored tradition for Republicans."
