Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to require an alien arriving from a foreign territory contiguous to the United States to return to such territory, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to require that aliens arriving from a foreign territory contiguous to the United States (such as Mexico) be returned to that territory, rather than having the option to return. The key provision is the change from "may return" to "shall return" aliens to the contiguous territory, making this mandatory rather than discretionary.
