Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security to publish a detailed monthly report by the seventh day of each month showing how many "special interest aliens" were encountered trying to enter the United States illegally. Special interest aliens are defined as foreigners whose travel patterns suggest they may pose a national security risk. Each report must break down encounters by geographic region, whether they occurred at official ports of entry or elsewhere, and identify the nationalities and countries of origin of those encountered, specifically flagging individuals from countries designated as national security concerns. The reports must be posted on a publicly available DHS webpage and submitted to the House and Senate homeland security committees. The bill does not include any new funding or specific implementation timeline beyond the monthly reporting requirement.
