Wow. So 145 Dems decided it's all right for illegal migrants to sexually harass or beat women? That's very sad.
At least there are actually quite a few Dems that were willing to look the other way. That's a small improvement.
Oh, so they have to actually have to ANNOUNCE their feelings to the public, rather than calmly going against it. Kind of like what Trump does when he is in a jam, right?

On Thursday, the House passed HR 30, also known as the Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act, which Republican Nancy Mace of South Carolina sponsored. The law would make it so that any non-U.S. citizens who are convicted of or admitted to committing sex crimes would be deportable and unable to come back to the United States.
U.S. law already stipulates that migrants can be deported if they commit sex crimes, and the bill’s critics have charged that it could make victims of domestic abuse afraid of reporting crimes against their abusers.
“This bill is going to deport victims of domestic violence,” she told The Independent. “Overwhelmingly women who are being abused and battered are going to be targeted by this, and it is really sad.”
When asked if she was disappointed by fellow Democrats who voted in favor of the bill, Ocasio-Cortez replied, “Of course.”
Although I would vote in favor, I also see the problematic side this bill causes for victims and their families. It makes it so much scarier to report it.
just like the existence of a public sex offender list leads to fewer people reporting abuse compared to other countries without it, this will have the same effect.
