The brutal and senseless murder of Laken Riley, described as a 'beautiful young American', has ignited a political debate, with several lawmakers attributing the tragedy to current immigration policies and advocating for the Laken Riley Act. Senator Ted Budd proposed this Act to the spending package, emphasizing the need for a fair vote on the Senate floor. The Act would require ICE to take illegal aliens who commit petty crimes into custody before such tragedies occur, addressing the #BidenBorderCrisis.
