The Stop Government Abandonment and Placement Scandals Act of 2025 revises how the federal government handles unaccompanied migrant children in the immigration system. The bill requires the Office of Refugee Resettlement to track each unaccompanied child who is released from Department of Homeland Security custody while their immigration case is still ongoing, and to work with state governments to secure placements for these children. The legislation also removes certain regulations related to sponsors for unaccompanied minors, though the full details of those regulatory changes are not specified in the bill text. The bill affects unaccompanied migrant children, state child welfare and resettlement agencies, and federal immigration authorities, but contains no explicit new funding amounts or implementation timelines in the provided text.
