Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
This proposal targets non-U.S. citizens involved in sexual assault. It would require federal authorities to hold (detain) certain individuals who are in the country unlawfully, misrepresented themselves, or lacked proper documents, if they are charged with, arrested for, convicted of, or admit to acts that make up a sexual assault offense . It would also make sexual assault a clear reason to deny someone entry to the United States and a reason to remove (deport) someone who is already here, if they are convicted or admit to the offense.
