Summary

This bill seeks to fundamentally alter immigration enforcement by abolishing immigration detention and repealing related authorities. Within six months of enactment, the Secretary of Homeland Security must release all noncitizens currently held in detention on their own recognizance. The legislation systematically repeals numerous sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act, thereby eliminating the legal framework for immigration detention, inspection, apprehension, and removal, and mandates the termination of all existing contracts for detention and monitoring programs within two years, prohibiting future federal funding for such. The bill also targets the removal of specific enforcement tools, requiring a plan within one month and the removal of all ankle monitors from noncitizens within six months, with a subsequent prohibition on federal funds for these programs. It further bans federal funding for information-sharing partnerships, such as the Secure Communities Program, which facilitate the identification and targeting of noncitizens for immigration enforcement. Additionally, the bill restricts U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) funds from being used for civil immigration enforcement activities, including arrests, detention, removals, or the enforcement of criminal offenses where immigration status is an essential element. To support individuals affected by immigration enforcement, the bill establishes a new grant program, to be administered by the Secretary of Health and Human Services within 90 days. This program will award grants to community-based non-profit organizations to provide wrap-around social services , which include: housing assistance; mental health services; assistance accessing healthcare; financial empowerment and employment assistance; English classes; education assistance; and immigration legal assistance. These services must be voluntary, opt-in, and provided without any surveillance or monitoring, and recipient organizations are explicitly prohibited from sharing personal identifying information with any federal entity.
