Katie Britt, R-AL, passed the House of Representatives before being sent to the Oval Office where it is expected to be the first bill signed into law under the new Trump administration. The bill would require U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to detain any undocumented migrant arrested for offenses as minor as shoplifting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alreporter.com\/2025\/01\/16\/what-would-the-laken-riley-act-do\/\">before they are even charged with a crime<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, Britt is looking to add onto the provisions of the Laken Riley Act with a new bill, the Protect Our Law Enforcement with Immigration Control and Enforcement (POLICE) Act of 2025, which she introduced on Monday alongside U.S. Sen. Ted Budd, R-NC.<\/p>\n<p>When it passed, the Laken Riley Act included an amendment which added assaulting a law enforcement officer to the list of crimes which ICE is required to detain an undocumented immigrant for. In that vein, the POLICE Act would explicitly make the assault of a law enforcement officer, firefighter, or other first responder by an undocumented individual a \u201cdeportable offense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe American people want to make sure our communities and our friends and neighbors are safe,\u201d Britt said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britt.senate.gov\/news\/press-releases\/u-s-senators-katie-britt-ted-budd-protect-law-enforcement-build-on-laken-riley-act\/\">in an official statement<\/a> on Monday. \u201cThe passage of the Laken Riley Act was a big step forward in helping achieve this goal, but there is so much more that needs to be done, including passage of the POLICE Act. I think all Americans should be able to agree that if you break our laws after coming here illegally, you should be quickly removed from our nation. Senator Ted Budd\u2019s and my legislation would ensure our brave law enforcement officers, firefighters, and first responders are strongly protected.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Budd also spoke in support of the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the best ways we can support law enforcement officers, and protect the public, is by deporting dangerous people who do them harm. If a migrant commits the crime of assaulting an officer or other first responder, they should be subject to immediate deportation. Our lawmakers must always back the men and women who protect and serve our communities. We must act on this vital proposal,\u201d Budd said.<\/p>\n<p>Just days into the new Trump administration, Sen. Britt has already been one of the staunchest supporters of the president\u2019s anti-immigration agenda.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-6\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div class=\"zox-post-ad-wrap\"><span class=\"zox-ad-label\">Advertisement.
