Sen. Ted Cruz and Rep. Stephanie Bice will reintroduce a bill on Tuesday to impose harsher penalties on migrants who try to illegally reenter the U.S. after being removed or deported.

The bill is sometimes called " Kate's Law ," named after a 32-year-old woman killed on a San Francisco pier by an undocumented immigrant who had felony convictions and was removed from the US five times.
