U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, whose District 28 covers part of San Antonio, was one of 48 Democrats who voted for a GOP-led bill that would make it easier to detain and deport undocumented immigrants for nonviolent crimes. If the bill, dubbed the Laken Riley Act, passes in the Senate and gets signed into law, it would require authorities to detain undocumented immigrants for theft-related crimes such as shoplifting. Activist groups have denounced the legislation as a rubber stamp on increased racial profiling and an effort to ramp up deportations.
