"Iowa's crackdown on illegal immigration: Bill heads to Governor's desk

On Tuesday, Iowa lawmakers passed a controversial bill, continuing the country's recent discussion about illegal migration to the United States.

The bill known as Senate File 2340, passed by mostly Republican lawmakers in 64-30, would ban people from entering Iowa after having been deported from the United States in the past or barred from entering the country. Additionally, the bill refers to people who have an order to leave the country.

"President Biden and his administration have failed to enforce our immigration laws and, in doing so, have compromised the sovereignty of our nation and the safety of its people. States have stepped in to secure the border, preventing illegal migrants from entering our country and protecting our citizens," said Gov. Kim Reynolds in the statement after the bill was passed.

The document is part of a broader discussion about immigration to the United States. For a long time, there has been a crisis in Texas at the U.S.-Mexican border. Yesterday, the Supreme Court, after blocking it, eventually passed a controversial S.B. 4 law enabling Texas authorities to arrest, detain and, in some cases, even deport people who illegally cross the American border without proper documents.
