Simpson Supports Bill to Target Illegal Alien Fraudsters | 2026-03-18 | 2026 | 2026-03 | Republican | House | ID | Michael K. Simpson | S001148 | simpson.house.gov | simpson | https://simpson.house.gov/news | scraper | WASHINGTON— Today, Idaho Congressman Mike Simpson voted in favor of H.R. 1958, the Deporting Fraudsters Act, a bill that would make criminal aliens who defraud United States taxpayers deportable. This legislation is sponsored by Rep. David Taylor (R-OH). “Those who enter this country with the intent of defrauding the American people should not be allowed to stay,” said Rep. Simpson. “Foreign fraudsters who play the system and the American people must be held accountable. Billions of dollars in fraud were uncovered under the noses of failed leaders like Tim Walz and Keith Ellison in Minnesota. What happened in Minnesota should never have happened. This legislation closes loopholes, strengthens federal officers’ ability to remove illegal alien fraudsters, and protects the American taxpayer.” The measure was approved with a vote of 231-186. | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
