Bill > HR875

This bill, named after Jeremy and Angel Seay and Sergeant Brandon Mendoza, aims to modify U.S. immigration law by expanding grounds for inadmissibility and deportation for non-citizens convicted of driving while intoxicated (DWI) or impaired. Specifically, the bill would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make any non-citizen (alien) who has been convicted of, admitted to committing, or admitted to acts constituting driving while intoxicated or impaired ineligible for admission to the United States. Additionally, the bill would make such non-citizens subject to deportation, regardless of whether the offense is classified as a misdemeanor or felony under federal, state, tribal, or local law. This applies to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and covers convictions from any jurisdiction. The bill broadens existing immigration law by creating a specific category of inadmissibility and deportability related to impaired driving, which could potentially lead to more non-citizens being denied entry or removed from the United States based on DWI or related offenses.
