Representatives Debbie Dingell (D-MI06), Haley Stevens (D-MI11), Shri Thanedar (D-MI13), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI12) were "nay" votes on H.R. 7343, aka the Detain and Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act, a bill which would’ve required federal officials to detain migrants accused of assaulting law enforcement until deportation. 

Reps. Dingell, Stevens, Thanedar, and Tlaib joined 144 of their Democrat colleagues in opposing the bill, which ultimately passed 265 to 148.

The Detain and Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) "to take custody of any non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) who meets certain inadmissibility criteria and is arrested for, is charged with, is convicted of, or admits to assaulting a law enforcement officer, firefighter, or other first responder." 

The bill was introduced in the House in February 2024 and, while it passed on May 15, four of the seven Democratic members of Michigan's House delegation — Reps. Debbie Dingell, Haley Stevens, Shri Thanedar, and Rashida Tlaib — voted against it.

As Restoration News notes, all four of those representatives are in favor of legislation granting citizenship to illegal aliens.

A recent report from Restoration News found that over 500 illegal alien alleged criminals were arrested in April alone. This figure included 20 illegal aliens arrested on murder charges.

According to the analysis, in April, one illegal immigrant was taken into custody by law enforcement in Michigan and charged with crimes including home invasion and sexual assault.

Since President Biden took office, over 7.2 million illegal immigrants have entered the United States. According to a report from Fox News, this figure is larger than the population of 36 US States.
