AI Summary
This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to require the Secretary of Homeland Security to detain and deport illegal aliens who are charged with, arrested for, or convicted of assaulting a law enforcement officer. The bill defines "assault" based on the jurisdiction where the incident occurred and "law enforcement officer" to include police, firefighters, campus police, and school resource officers. The Secretary of Homeland Security must issue a detainer for these individuals and take them into custody if they are not already detained by federal, state, or local officials. The bill also requires an annual report to Congress on the number of such individuals detained.
