Restricting Federal Air Marshals from Border Security and Immigration Duties.
This bill aims to prohibit the deployment of Federal Air Marshals (FAMS), whose primary duty is aviation security, to the northern or southern borders for immigration or border security tasks. This ensures that these specialized agents remain focused on protecting air travel, maintaining full staffing for flight security operations. The restriction can only be lifted if the Secretary of Homeland Security formally determines and certifies that a border crisis exists.
Key points
Federal Air Marshals are barred from being assigned to border security or immigrant processing duties.
The measure is intended to keep FAMS focused on their core mission of commercial flight security.
The only exception is if the Secretary of Homeland Security officially determines and certifies that a 'border crisis' exists.
