Crime Doesn’t Fly Act of 2025

House Votes

This bill says TSA cannot accept certain immigration warrants as ID at airport security checkpoints. Specifically, it bans using ICE arrest warrants (Form I-200) and removal/deportation warrants (Form I-205) as proof of identity. The only exception is for someone who is being formally removed from the United States under immigration law, such as during a government-arranged deportation flight.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Airline passengers, especially non-U.S. nationals who might try to use ICE warrants as ID; TSA officers at airport checkpoints.
• What changes: ICE Forms I-200 and I-205 are no longer accepted as valid ID at airport security checkpoints, except during official removal processes.
• Where it applies: Airport security checkpoints nationwide.

In everyday terms, if you’re flying, you can’t use an ICE arrest or deportation warrant as your ID at TSA. The only time those documents can be used is when the person is being deported by the government and traveling as part of that process.
