Bill > HR4711

This bill, known as the REMOVE Act (Rapid Expulsion of Migrant Offenders who Violate and Evade Act), aims to expedite the removal proceedings for immigrants who have been convicted of deportable offenses. The bill amends Section 239(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act to require the Attorney General to initiate removal proceedings as quickly as possible after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) files a Notice to Appear for an immigrant. Specifically, if an immigrant has been convicted of an offense that makes them deportable, the Attorney General must start removal proceedings as expeditiously as possible following the conviction. Moreover, the bill mandates that all immigration court proceedings for such individuals must be completed within 15 days of their commencement, overriding any existing legal provisions that might otherwise delay the process. This legislation is designed to streamline and accelerate the deportation process for immigrants who have committed offenses that render them eligible for removal from the United States.
