The Senate on Monday passed the contentious Laken Riley Act in a 64-35 vote. The bill would require Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain and potentially deport undocumented immigrants arrested for — but not necessarily convicted of — various crimes, including shoplifting, burglary and theft.

Alabama’s junior senator planted her flag and impressed politicos, pundits, and constituents alike when she built a historic bipartisan coalition supporting her strong bill that combats both illegal immigration and rampant crime.

An amended version of the Laken Riley Act passed through the Senate Monday night with bipartisan support in a vote of 64 to 35.

Senate passage gives Trump a legislative victory on his first day back in the White House and jump-starts his sweeping agenda to curb illegal immigration.

President Donald Trump is one step closer to signing the immigration-related legislation into law after the GOP-controlled U.S. Senate passed the Laken Riley Act, making it the first piece of legislation to pass the upper chamber of the new Congress.

If this trend continues, the phrase “Only Katie Britt could do it” may soon be repeated over and over again, much like a political mantra among her ever-growing army of supporters and admirers both in Washington, D.C. and across Alabama.
