Bill > HR6204

This bill proposes several key provisions: 1. It amends the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 to change the standards for repatriating unaccompanied alien children and clarify standards for family detention. 2. It defines the term "aggravated felony" more broadly under immigration law and redefines the term "crime of violence." 3. It establishes a process for the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate criminal gangs and makes membership in such gangs a ground of inadmissibility and deportability. 4. It makes various reforms to the asylum process, including changes to credible fear interviews, jurisdiction of asylum applications, and penalties for asylum fraud. 5. It authorizes additional immigration judges, support staff, and Department of Homeland Security personnel to process asylum applications more efficiently. 6. It requires the Department of Homeland Security to maintain joint detention facilities for asylum applicants who retain custody of a child.
