Bill Summary
A BILL To require U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to take into custody certain aliens who have been charged in the United States with a crime that resulted in the death or serious bodily injury of another person, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as "Sarah's Law", requires U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to take into custody certain aliens who have been charged in the United States with a crime that resulted in the death or serious bodily injury of another person. The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to mandate the detention of these aliens, and it also requires ICE to make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the victims and provide that information to the victim or their family members. The bill ensures that this new requirement does not limit the rights of crime victims under any other provision of law.
