A GOP-led bill to require the detention of undocumented migrants charged with certain crimes is on the verge of passage in the Senate after a significant number of Democrats joined with Republicans to advance the measure in a critical vote on Friday.

Ten U.S. Senate Democrats provided the votes needed on Friday to advance a bill requiring authorities to detain migrants who entered the country illegally if they are suspected of theft.

The Senate voted to move forward with the Laken Riley Act, which would require authorities to detain undocumented immigrants arrested for theft-related and other offenses.

Senate Republicans have made the so-called Laken Riley Act a top priority, potentially making it the first bill Trump signs as president.
