Stricter Immigration Supervision: Mandatory GPS Tracking and Detention Priority.
This bill significantly tightens immigration enforcement by terminating certain supervision programs and redirecting funds to increase detention capacity. It mandates GPS tracking for all non-detained individuals awaiting immigration proceedings and requires immediate detention for those who violate supervision terms or move to jurisdictions limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities. These changes prioritize detention over alternative supervision methods and accelerate removal proceedings for non-compliant participants.
Key points
Eliminates specific case management programs (Case Management Pilot and Young Adult Case Management) and uses the funding to increase the number of immigration detention beds.
Requires mandatory GPS monitoring for all individuals on the non-detained docket throughout their immigration proceedings until removal.
Individuals in the ISAP program who fail a mandatory check-in will be immediately detained and face expedited removal proceedings.
Prohibits participation in supervision programs for individuals residing in 'sanctuary jurisdictions' that restrict cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.
