Carter, Taylor celebrate House Passage of bill to deport aliens responsible for defrauding American taxpayers

WASHINGTON, D.C . – Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) today celebrated House passage of the Deporting Fraudsters Act , introduced by Rep. Dave Taylor (R-OH), which he co-sponsors. This bill would render aliens, or non-U.S. nationals, inadmissible and deportable from the United States if they admit to, or are convicted of, defrauding the United States government. This bill further makes aliens inadmissible and deportable from the U.S. if they unlawfully receive a federal, state, or local public benefit. “Illegal alien fraudsters are draining taxpayer dollars and taking benefits from American citizens,” said Rep. Carter. “I proudly co-sponsored the Deporting Fraudsters Act because it’s common sense: if you steal from the United States and the most vulnerable in our society, you have no right to be here. I applaud the leadership of Rep. Taylor for working to protect American citizens against waste, fraud, and abuse.” “It’s a no-brainer – if an illegal alien defrauds the United States or steals benefits from our nation’s most vulnerable, they should be permanently removed from our country,” said Rep. Taylor. “Americans work too hard to have their tax dollars and benefits stolen by illegal aliens who shouldn’t be here in the first place. My Deporting Fraudsters Act will bolster the Trump Administration’s efforts to do just that, and today I’m proud to see it take a major step toward becoming law.” Read bill text here . ###
