This bill aims to significantly accelerate the completion of removal proceedings for non-citizens. It mandates that the Attorney General promptly initiate removal proceedings once a Notice to Appear is filed and served, with an even greater emphasis on expeditious commencement for aliens convicted of offenses making them deportable. A core provision of this legislation requires the Attorney General to ensure that all immigration court proceedings for these individuals are completed within 15 days of their commencement. This strict deadline applies broadly and is intended to override other provisions of law, thereby streamlining the process for the rapid expulsion of migrant offenders.
