Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to provide for the removal and permanent inadmissibility of certain aliens convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the Returning Illegals over Turmoil Act, proposes significant changes to immigration law targeting aliens who participate in civil unrest or assault law enforcement officers. Specifically, the bill would make any non-citizen unlawfully present in the United States, with DACA status, or holding legal permanent residency deportable if they are convicted of or admit to inciting violence, participating in riots, assaulting law enforcement or military personnel, or willfully damaging public property during civil disturbances. The bill mandates that such individuals be permanently inadmissible to the United States and bars them from receiving any form of immigration relief, including asylum, cancellation of removal, or future DACA benefits. During declared national, state, or local emergencies, the bill requires mandatory enforcement of these provisions, allows for expedited removal of affected individuals, and mandates their detention pending approval. The Secretary of Homeland Security would have expanded authority to implement these provisions, and the act would apply to offenses committed on or after its enactment date, effectively creating a more stringent legal framework for removing non-citizens involved in civil unrest or violence against law enforcement.
