Libertyville, IL – In response to the September 18, 2024 vote by Brad Schneider and 157 Democrats in Congress against the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act, Jim Carris stated:
“Brad Schneider’s vote against the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act shows a blatant lack of common sense and compassion for victims of crime, particularly women.
This is especially disheartening for a District filled with intelligent and independent women who deserve unwavering support on all issues. By siding with the far left, he neglects the urgent need to protect our communities affected by illegal immigration.
Unlike Brad Schneider, I support an immediate closure of the southern border, swift immigration reform, and robust law enforcement. I will push for measures that prevent crimes against women and ensure harsh penalties for offenders. It’s time for a leader who prioritizes safety and accountability over partisan loyalty—one who truly stands with the women of the 10th District.”
