A BILL To establish a military family immigration advisory committee, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, the Honoring the Oath Act of 2021, aims to establish a Military Family Immigration Advisory Committee to provide recommendations on the exercise of prosecutorial discretion in cases involving the removal of noncitizen members of the U.S. Armed Forces, veterans, and their family members. The bill defines key terms, requires the identification of these individuals in removal proceedings, and mandates the committee's review of their cases. It also calls for the compilation of a list of countries unwilling to repatriate U.S. veterans and the implementation of a program to naturalize noncitizen members of the Armed Forces and their family members. Additionally, the bill requires a study and report on noncitizen veterans removed from the U.S. since 1990.
