Ariz. Dem Sen. Mark Kelly: I Support Laken Riley Act

Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., on Wednesday reportedly became the fifth Democrat to announce support for the Laken Riley Act.

The bill, named for the 22-year-old Georgia nursing school student murdered last year by an illegal immigrant, would require U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to take custody of illegal migrants who commit theft-related crime.

Currently, local law enforcement can only contact ICE after a major crime has been committed by an illegal migrant.
