This bill directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish a publicly available, online database providing comprehensive information on immigration detention. For individuals in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody, the database would include the legal authority for their detention, its duration, and their location, with specific exceptions for minors or individuals with protection orders. It would also present population-level data, such as demographic information including nationality and age, alongside details on disciplinary actions and deportations. The database is further required to detail information regarding individuals detained in **non-traditional locations**, such as Department of Defense property or Indian lands, including justifications for their use and the standards of care applied. It must also track open or unresolved recommendations from key oversight bodies like the Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman and the Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties, noting ICE's projected timeline for implementation or rationale for non-adoption. This database will be updated daily, with archived information made available annually, and will explicitly exclude any personally identifiable information. Additionally, the legislation ensures the continued operation of critical oversight offices within the Department of Homeland Security. Subject to the availability of appropriations, the Secretary of Homeland Security is prohibited from discontinuing or reducing the operations of either the **Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman** or the **Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties**.
