US EditionNevada Democrats Vote Against Bill To Deport Illegal Aliens Convicted of Welfare Fraud
- The U.S. House passed the Deporting Fraudsters Act 231-186, making welfare fraud by illegal aliens a deportable offense, with all 186 opposing votes from Democrats including Nevada's delegation.

- Democrats criticized the bill for allowing deportation before criminal conviction and raising due process concerns, while Republicans argued it protects taxpayer resources without preventing prosecution.
- The Senate is unlikely to pass the bill due to Democratic opposition and the 60-vote threshold required by Senate rules, resulting in the legislation being stalled despite House approval.
