Removal of criminal illegal immigrants expedited in new Florida Sen. Moody measure
Sen. Ashley Moody is set to unveil a new measure on Wednesday that aims to fast-track the removal of criminal illegal immigrants from the United States, particularly those involved in gangs, foreign terrorist organizations, or convicted of felonies on American soil. The legislation, titled “The Expedited Removal of Criminal Aliens Act,” is being co-sponsored by Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri.
According to Moody’s team, the bill is crucial in supporting the immigration priorities set by the Trump administration. Moody expressed frustration with what she sees as obstruction by Democrats and partisan judges who have hindered efforts to remove dangerous criminal illegal aliens from the country.
The proposed legislation would authorize the expedited removal of immigrants who are members of criminal gangs or organizations, foreign terrorist organizations, or have been convicted of felonies or misdemeanors. This includes offenses such as assaults on law enforcement officers, sexual offenses, domestic violence crimes, stalking, crimes against children, and violations of protection orders.
Moody emphasized the importance of prioritizing common-sense immigration policies to prevent known terrorists, criminals, and gang members from remaining in the country and posing a risk to communities. The bill comes in the midst of a legal battle over Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadorian migrant and alleged MS-13 member who was deported to El Salvador in March.
Abrego Garcia, suspected of involvement in labor/human trafficking, was identified as a member of MS-13 by law enforcement investigations. Despite efforts by some Democrats to challenge his deportation, the Trump administration stands by its decision to remove him from the country.
