Rep. Barry Moore's bill to deport illegals who drive under the influence passes House Judiciary Committee
Washington, D.C. - Today, Rep. Barry Moore's (AL-01) bill, The Jeremy and Angel Seay and Sergeant Brandon Mendoza Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act of 2025, passed the Judiciary Committee. This legislation would deport any alien who has been convicted or admitted to the offense of driving while drunk or impaired.
From Rep. Moore's opening statement: "Every 45 minutes -- that is how often someone in the United States dies in a crash with an alcohol-impaired driver. In 2022 alone, there were 13,524 alcohol-impaired driving fatalities and 400,000 injuries. Those crashes don't discriminate. It could me, it could be you, could be one of our family members. This issue hits close to home for me. There was a newlywed couple from my hometown of Enterprise named Angel and Jeremy Seay, I knew this couple personally. Angel and Jeremy were riding their motorcycle together when out of nowhere an illegal immigrant under the influence of alcohol plowed into them with his pick-up truck. Their lives were cut short, and unfortunately tragedies like this one are not uncommon across our country."
