The House voted on Tuesday to pass a GOP-led bill that would mandate the detention of undocumented migrants charged with specific crimes. The measure received support from a significant number of Democrats, but its future in the Senate remains uncertain, indicating the challenges facing Republicans despite their control of both chambers of Congress.
The vote resulted in a 264 to 159 outcome, with 48 Democrats aligning with Republicans in favor of the bill. This marks an increase from the previous session of Congress when 37 Democrats supported similar legislation.
