It's a bad bill.
The killer, José Antonio Ibarra, had a bench warrant for shoplifting that he failed to appear for. "Minor"? are you special pleader for him?
He entered the United States illegally also. BTW, he was arrested in August of last year for endangering the welfare of a child. Why was he here and why was he out walking around free?

I feel bad for the family. They lost their daughter and now they're being used as political fodder by the shameless GOP.
This killer was admitted by the Biden administration.
Face it. He has had a crisis for 3 years that he and his cronies have denied.
He created the crisis beginning with Day 1 of his presidency. And, could end it with a stroke of a pen.
But, he won't because doing so would be evidence that he could have taken action all along.
Trump gave amnesty to Venezuelans on his way out the door. And...he know the border was an issue during his presidency and wanted a border bill passed then.
He absolutely DID NOT GIVE AMNESTY TO ANYONE.
You clearly have no idea what the hell you are talking about.

Jose Ibarra, 26, is accused of using a mystery object as a weapon to kill the 22-year-old Augusta University student. It's unclear if authorities have retrieved the object used as the murder weapon.
Rest peacefully, Laken. I am sorry you were not protected by the people who are in charge of country.
what happened to her of course was awful, unbelievable heartache for the family, but "the people in charge", whether R or D, fail Americans everyday. More people die of gun deaths by the hands of real Americans everyday than by illegal immigrants. Why are you not upset about that?
You don't seem to care when children die by gun violence. Your only response is "thoughts and prayers", which is meaningless.
I'd believe your "sorry" more if you hated the gun violence and easy access to guns in this country as much as you hate illegal immigrants.

Laken and her family mean nothing to democrats.
Well, the families of Sandy Hook, Parkland, and Uvalde might be available to talk about how the murder of their children has meant nothing to the GOP.
+1 exactly

The people who killed the children at those schools were legally in the United States. They were born here. How was the GOP supposed to deport people born in America before they committed crimes?
Please explain what authority the GOP would arrest these 3 people with, who the GOP would send to take these people into custody pre-shooting, where the GOP jail is located, and where the GOP would deport 3 American citizens to?
dp.. really? Are you that dense?
