Senate immigration bill aims to overturn Supreme Court precedent in a sea change for legal system, experts say

  • The Laken Riley Act aims to give states new powers to challenge federal immigration enforcement, allowing lawsuits against decisions to release individual migrants and seeking sanctions against countries refusing deportees.
  • The bill has passed the House and cleared its first procedural hurdle in the Senate, with bipartisan support, needing seven Democratic votes for final approval.
  • Critics argue that the bill could divert resources from addressing violent crime and complicate the immigration system, while supporters claim it is necessary to enforce laws effectively.
  • The legislation is named after Laken Riley, whose murder by an undocumented immigrant highlighted issues in immigration policies, influencing Republican campaigns.
