Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make unlawful voting an aggravated felony.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to expand the definition of aggravated felonies for immigrants by specifically adding unlawful voting as a ground for being classified as having committed an aggravated felony. Under the proposed changes, any non-citizen who votes in violation of federal, state, or local laws would be considered inadmissible to the United States and potentially subject to deportation. The bill, titled the "Deport Illegal Voters Act of 2025," modifies existing immigration law to add voting by non-citizens as a specific category of serious immigration violation. This means that if an immigrant votes in any election without being legally authorized to do so, they could face severe consequences, including being barred from entering the country and being removed from the United States. The legislation aims to strengthen restrictions on voting by non-citizens by creating more explicit legal mechanisms to penalize such actions.
