Terrorist Deportation Act: New Rules for Individuals in Terrorist Databases

This act amends immigration laws to facilitate the removal of individuals identified in government terrorist screening databases. This means such individuals will face significantly stricter entry into the U.S. and limited access to many immigration benefits, with some exceptions for permanent residents. The goal is to enhance national security by expediting the removal of potential threats.
Key points
Individuals in terrorist screening databases will be inadmissible to the U.S., unless granted a specific, difficult-to-obtain waiver.
Restricted access to asylum, withholding of removal, cancellation of removal, and other immigration benefits for individuals in terrorist databases.
Expedited removal procedures for non-permanent residents identified in terrorist databases, with limited avenues for appeal.
