Bill > S1977

This bill, called the Rapid Expulsion of Migrant Offenders who Violate and Evade (REMOVE) Act, aims to expedite the removal proceedings for certain immigrants. Specifically, the bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to require the Attorney General to begin removal proceedings quickly after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) files a Notice to Appear against an immigrant. For immigrants who have been convicted of an offense that makes them deportable, the Attorney General must start removal proceedings as quickly as possible after the conviction. Moreover, the bill mandates that all immigration court proceedings for these individuals must be completed within 15 days of being initiated, regardless of other existing legal provisions. This means that the immigration court system would be required to process and potentially deport certain immigrants with criminal convictions at a significantly faster pace than current law allows, with a strict 15-day timeline for completing these proceedings.
