AI Summary
This bill, the "Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act," seeks to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make aliens who have been convicted of or committed sex offenses, domestic violence, stalking, child abuse, or violations of protection orders inadmissible and deportable. It expands the definition of "domestic violence" to include any crime that constitutes domestic violence, regardless of whether the jurisdiction receives grant funding under the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994. The bill aims to address violence against women by illegal aliens by strengthening the grounds for their inadmissibility and deportability.
