Federal HB7664 allows state officers to perform certain Department of Homeland Security functions in removing criminal aliens.
Federal HB7664, the State Partnerships to Enhance Removal of Criminal Aliens Act, amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to allow state officers and employees to perform certain Department of Homeland Security counsel functions in removal proceedings. This includes representing the Department in removal proceedings for aliens convicted of specified crimes. The bill also modifies the definition of aggravated felonies and expands the grounds for removal of aliens convicted of certain crimes.
The filed bill text is too short for analysis.
