Treats people linked to criminal gangs as inadmissible to the United States and makes them removable. It gives the Secretary of Homeland Security authority to designate groups as “criminal gangs” under a new process with limited review, broadens mandatory detention for covered noncitizens, and bars many gang‑affiliated noncitizens from asylum, parole, special juvenile immigrant relief, and some temporary protections. The changes take effect on enactment and apply to acts before, on, or after that date.
