🚨#HR7909 will stop illegal immigrants from hunting our women. 🚨
Every member voting against this bill shows the American people they care more about illegal aliens than our women and children.

We’ve heard it all before — open-border advocates love to claim illegal immigrants pose no threat.
But as a woman and an elected official, I’m here to tell the truth and help protect those I represent.
I’ve had enough of weak-kneed politicians pointing at dubious data and making excuses for illegal immigrants who come into our country and rape and murder women and children.
Congresswoman Nancy Mace
We’ve all heard it before - the GOP has a “woman” problem.
The party rarely won among men, and has lost year after year among women. One of my goals as a woman and a Republican is to change that. The Republican Party can do two things at once: protect life while also standing up for women.
"Protecting women and children from sexual predators should be one of our nation’s top priorities. While some in D.C. play politics, our most vulnerable are left at risk. It’s essential all of our relevant agencies are fully committed to this mission. We need to ensure every report of abuse is thoroughly investigated and that no child falls through the cracks. Our focus must be on protecting the innocent lives of the most vulnerable, not on political distractions."
