This bill proposes to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act, granting certain aliens the right to request that their removal proceedings be conducted virtually. The primary goal is to enhance due process by allowing eligible individuals to participate in proceedings via video conference or telephone conference . Specifically, an alien who is not in the custody of the Secretary of Homeland Security may formally make such a request. Upon receiving this request, the immigration judge is mandated to grant it and must actively ensure that the alien experiences no prejudice as a result of participating in the virtual process.
