This bill would allow the Department of Homeland Security to quickly remove foreign nationals from the United States without standard court proceedings if they are determined to be gang members, supporters of designated terrorist organizations, or have been convicted of serious crimes. The covered offenses include all felonies, misdemeanors against vulnerable groups (children under 16, pregnant women, elderly people, and those with severe disabilities), assaults on law enforcement, sexual offenses, domestic violence, stalking, crimes against children including sex trafficking, and violations of protection orders. The bill also prevents these individuals from seeking withholding of removal, a legal protection that can prevent deportation in certain circumstances. The legislation does not specify implementation timelines or funding amounts. The bill was introduced in May 2025 and referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee for consideration.
