This alien was granted Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) status by the Biden Administration

WASHINGTON – The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement after an investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) led to the conviction of an alien from the Philippines who illegally voted in the 2024 election.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania announced that on September 16, Evelyn Novelles Miller, an alien from the Philippines and Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR), pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election.

HSI Allentown initiated an investigation after receiving information regarding an individual residing in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, who may have registered to vote or voted unlawfully. Miller is alleged to have registered to vote on October 9, 2024, and to have voted in the November 5, 2024, general election.

On July 29, 2025, HSI and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Special Agents interviewed Miller at her residence. Miller confirmed to agents that she registered to vote online before the 2024 general election and voted in person on Election Day. Miller further described the voting process, including going to her polling place in Emmaus.

“This alien from the Philippines pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election in Pennsylvania,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of HSI, as well as our partners at the Department of Justice, this alien will soon face justice for her efforts to subvert our elections. American elections are for Americans only.”

HSI conducted the investigation in coordination with the FBI, and the investigative work supported the federal prosecution that resulted in Miller’s guilty plea for illegally voting in the 2024 general election.

Miller was granted LPR status by the Biden Administration on July 19, 2024.
