The Artemis Act of 2025 proposes an amendment to the Immigration and Nationality Act, specifically targeting the provisions for expedited removal. Its primary goal is to establish a new exception to prevent certain individuals from being subjected to this accelerated removal process. Under this bill, expedited removal would not apply to an alien who is a native or citizen of, or would be removed to, a designated "country of concern." A "country of concern" is defined as one that the Secretary of State has identified as a "country of particular concern" or a "special watch list country" under section 402(b)(1)(A) of the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998.
