This bill would authorize the expedited removal of immigrants who entered the United States illegally on or after January 20, 2021, regardless of whether they claim asylum or express fear of persecution. The legislation would apply to anyone in this category and would bypass the normal legal processes that typically allow undocumented immigrants to request asylum hearings before removal. The only exception to expedited removal would be for immigrants who are currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces as of January 1, 2024. The bill does not specify funding amounts or implementation timelines, and it would fundamentally change how immigration enforcement handles asylum claims for individuals who entered the country during the specified timeframe.
