Bill > HR5713

This bill aims to expand the expedited removal process for certain non-U.S. citizens by adding a new section to the Immigration and Nationality Act. Specifically, the bill would allow the Department of Homeland Security to mandatorily detain and quickly remove individuals who fall into three main categories: members of criminal gangs or organizations, members or supporters of foreign terrorist organizations, or individuals convicted of specified crimes. These crimes include felonies, misdemeanors against vulnerable groups (defined as children under 16, pregnant women, individuals with severe disabilities, or people over 65), assaults on law enforcement, sexual offenses, domestic violence, stalking, crimes against children, and violations of protection orders. The bill also stipulates that individuals meeting these criteria would be ineligible for withholding of removal, which means they cannot seek protection from deportation under existing immigration laws. The goal of the legislation is to streamline the process of removing non-citizens who are deemed to pose a potential threat to public safety, providing a more expedited mechanism for their removal from the United States.
