Updated: Apr 8, 2025
Summary
The "Safeguarding American Property Act of 2025" proposes to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act, specifically section 236(c), which governs the detention of certain aliens. The primary purpose of this legislation is to expand the scope of offenses that trigger mandatory detention for non-citizens. Under the proposed changes, the bill adds trespassing , vandalism , and arson to the existing list of property crimes that subject an alien to mandatory detention. This amendment ensures that individuals who commit these specific offenses will be detained without bond pending immigration proceedings, and it also updates the definitional section of the Act to explicitly include these newly added crimes.
