Requires new reports on how federal agencies treat people in custody.
This bill would require federal agencies like Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to send detailed reports to Congress. These reports would include details about people held in custody, such as any abuse, medical problems, or deaths. It would also require agencies to tell Congress before using new, uncommon places to hold people.
Today, federal law does not explicitly require agencies like the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to regularly report detailed information about people in their custody. This includes incidents of abuse or deaths. If this bill becomes law, these agencies would have to send specific, detailed reports to Congress and the Comptroller General on how people are held, sent out of the country, any problems, and complaints. They would also need to provide advance notice before using uncommon places to hold people.
