This legislation is the most significant immigration enforcement and border security related bill to pass the Senate in nearly three decades.

The bill will be considered by the U.S. House of Representatives this week before heading to President Trump to be signed into law.

Fresh off President Donald Trump’s inauguration, the Senate on Monday passed a bill that would require federal authorities to detain migrants accused of theft and violent crimes, the first measure he likely will sign into law and giving more weight to his plans to deport millions of migrants.
