AI-Generated Summary

Updated June 25, 2026 at 8:51 AM UTC

The bill requires the Department of Homeland Security to create and maintain a publicly accessible online database that provides detailed information about non‑citizens who have been convicted of crimes and later released from immigration custody. The database would include photos, identifying details, and release information, and it would be searchable by name and location. The measure is aimed at increasing public awareness and law‑enforcement access to data on released criminal aliens.

Key Provisions

The Secretary of Homeland Security, through ICE, must set up a public online database within 180 days of the law’s enactment.
The database must list every non‑citizen who has been convicted of a crime and then released from ICE custody, showing their photo, name, basic physical description (height, weight), the jurisdiction where they were released, the release date, and the specific legal category that applies to them.
The database must be searchable by the person’s name and by the jurisdiction of release.
