Want the short version? Ask what this bill does
Adds assaulting a law enforcement officer to the list of deportable offenses for noncitizens and requires the Department of Homeland Security to publish an annual count of deportations under that new ground. A noncitizen becomes deportable if convicted of, or if they admit to (or admit the essential elements of) an offense that involves assaulting a law enforcement officer, and the bill supplies short definitions of “assault” and “law enforcement officer.” DHS must report to Congress each year and post online how many noncitizens were removed under this specific deportation ground for the prior fiscal year.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
