Senator Thom Tillis and his colleagues have introduced the Protect Our Communities From DUIs Act, a legislation aimed at preventing illegal immigrants who have committed DUIs from entering the United States. The bill also seeks to automatically deport illegal immigrants who commit DUIs within the U.S.

In response to President Joe Biden's approach to deportations, Senator Tillis expressed concern over the impact of the current border policies. He stated, “President Biden’s disastrous border policies have resulted in criminal illegal immigrants settling into communities across the country." Tillis emphasized that the newly proposed legislation is designed to ensure that any illegal immigrant convicted of a DUI faces deportation to safeguard the lives of American citizens.

The Protect Our Communities From DUIs Act addresses the issue of illegal immigrants involved in DUI incidents, aiming to enhance public safety and prevent potential risks posed by such individuals. The full text of the bill can be accessed for further details.

This initiative reflects ongoing efforts within the U.S. government to address immigration-related challenges and prioritize public safety concerns in the country.
