Latest action on H.R. 5795: Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people in immigration removal cases who receive a final order after the bill becomes law. Their personal information would become easier for the public to find. It also affects DHS, which would have to create and keep up the online posting process. Law enforcement, journalists, researchers, and community members could use the posted information.

Why this matters: This bill matters because it would turn some final deportation information into an easy-to-find public list. That could make immigration enforcement more visible. It could also make personal information more exposed. The bill does not spell out how long the data stays online or how mistakes get fixed.

Key provisions in H.R. 5795

  • The bill changes Section 240 of the Immigration and Nationality Act. That section is the federal law for removal, often called deportation, cases.
  • The Secretary of Homeland Security would have to publish information about each person who gets a final removal order after the bill becomes law.
  • DHS would have to post the person’s name, photo, known aliases, and last known U.S. state of residence.
  • DHS would have to put the information on its official website.
  • The rule would apply only to final removal orders issued after the new provision takes effect. Older cases are not covered in the text.
