Permanent Bar for Asylum Seekers Missing Deportation Hearings.

This bill introduces a permanent ban on becoming a permanent resident in the U.S. for individuals ordered removed after failing to appear at their deportation proceeding. This means that if someone does not show up for their scheduled deportation hearing, without exceptional circumstances, they will permanently lose the ability to legally settle in the United States.
Key points
Individuals who fail to appear at their removal proceedings will be permanently ineligible for permanent residency in the U.S.
Currently, this bar is for 10 years; the new bill makes it permanent.
