Democratic Georgia Sen, Raphael Warnock pushed back against the Laken Riley Act on Tuesday, saying Republicans were not serious in addressing the border.
Democratic Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock called the Republican-led Laken Riley Act 'smoke and mirrors' on Tuesday, accusing lawmakers of failing to do anything substantive to address the crisis at the southern border. The legislation, which was passed in the House, would require the Department of Homeland Security to take illegal immigrants into custody if they have been charged with theft-related crimes.
Warnock previously criticized Republicans, saying they were trying to 'score cheap political' points in connection to Riley’s death after her name was wrongfully invoked by President Biden during last week's State of the Union address. 'Rather than demagoguing this tragic death by this young woman, they ought to get serious,' Warnock told Reid. 'And let’s pass some bipartisan legislation and deal with the crisis at the border.
