The "Protecting our Communities from Sexual Predators Act" amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to broaden the scope of individuals who can be detained and deported. It includes those who have committed sexual assault offenses, making them inadmissible to the U.S. and subject to deportation. This expansion applies to individuals who have been charged with, arrested for, or convicted of sexual assault, as well as those who admit to committing such acts.
This bill, named the "No Congressional Funds for Sanctuary Cities Act," prohibits federal funds from being used for congressional earmarks that benefit sanctuary jurisdictions, defined as those that obstruct immigration information sharing or detainment requests, excluding cases involving crime victims or witnesses, starting in fiscal year 2026.
