WASHINGTON, D.C. – The House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement released an interim report regarding Grevi Geovanni Rivera Zavala, an illegal alien from Honduras who assaulted a teenage girl in Prattville, Alabama.

Despite being expelled under Title 42 authority in November 2021, Rivera Zavala re-entered the U.S. undetected during the Biden-Harris Administration. In May 2023, he committed a violent assault on a young girl in a restaurant bathroom. The report reveals that Rivera Zavala had entered the U.S. as a "gotaway," and it was only through the Committee's investigation that information about his criminal history, including a domestic violence arrest in Honduras, was uncovered.

For 15 months, President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Senate Democrats have not considered the House-passed H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act of 2023. To secure America, proponents argue that the Senate must pass H.R. 2 and President Biden must sign it into law. Meanwhile, the Committee and Subcommittee will continue oversight and push for legislative reforms to address perceived shortcomings in immigration policies.

"Today, the House Judiciary Committee learned that an illegal who raped a 14-year-old girl in a restaurant bathroom in Prattville came into the United States as a gotaway in 2021, even with a criminal record of domestic violence in his home country. He is just one of the more than 600,000 and counting criminal illegals that the Biden-Harris Administration has welcomed into our country. Thanks to their reprehensible policies, not only is this young lady's life forever changed; every town is a border town, and no American family is safe," said Congressman Barry Moore (R-AL).
