Bill > S2001

This bill, titled the "No Visas for Violent Criminals Act," proposes to modify the Immigration and Nationality Act by expanding grounds for deportation of non-citizens. Specifically, the bill would make an alien (non-citizen) deportable if they are convicted of certain protest-related crimes, including offenses committed during a protest, crimes involving defacement or destruction of federal property, or intentionally obstructing highways, roads, bridges, or tunnels. If an alien is convicted of such a crime, the bill mandates that their visa be immediately cancelled and requires their removal from the United States within 60 days of conviction. This legislation significantly broadens the criteria for expedited removal, targeting non-citizens who engage in what the bill considers disruptive or destructive protest activities. The bill appears to be aimed at imposing stricter immigration consequences for individuals participating in protests that involve property damage or obstruction of public infrastructure.
