HR 10105: Stop ICE Price Gouging Act

The Stop ICE Price Gouging Act caps the prices of goods sold in commissaries at immigration detention facilities, limiting markups to 5 percent for essential items like hygiene products and communication supplies, and 35 percent for nonessential items. The bill prohibits additional service fees, commissions, or revenue-sharing arrangements between contractors and government agencies. If a detainee is overcharged, the agency must provide a refund, or if that is not possible due to transfer or release, the excess funds are deposited into a new Detainee Welfare Fund dedicated to purchasing recreational, educational, and electronic items for detainees. Enforcement involves regular audits by the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General and quarterly compliance reports submitted to Congress, while allowing states to maintain stricter price limits if they exist.

HR 10111: Oversight Access Act

The Oversight Access Act prohibits the Secretary of Homeland Security from blocking Members of Congress or their staff from entering immigration detention facilities for oversight purposes. The bill also forbids requiring advance notice for these visits and bans any temporary changes to a facility that would alter what visitors observe compared to normal conditions. If the Inspector General determines that the Secretary has significantly failed to follow these rules, they must report the violation to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees within 30 days.

HR 10040: No TSA Data for ICE Act

This bill, titled the No TSA Data for ICE Act, prohibits the Transportation Security Administration from sharing passenger data with U.S. Customs and Border Protection or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It specifically bars these agencies from using TSA information or data from private brokers to perform immigration enforcement functions. Additionally, the legislation prevents the denial, suspension, or early termination of Trusted Traveler programs like PreCheck and Global Entry if an individual's participation in First Amendment-protected activities is the reason. The law defines the restricted data as personally identifiable information about flight passengers obtained from the TSA or private sector entities.

S 5071: Children's Safe Welcome Act of 2026

The Children's Safe Welcome Act of 2026 establishes comprehensive standards for the treatment, care, and placement of noncitizen children in immigration custody, primarily affecting the Departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services. Key provisions include a prohibition on separating children from their parents or guardians unless there is clear and convincing evidence of an imminent threat, alongside requirements for rapid family reunification and the elimination of family detention facilities. The bill mandates that children be housed in state-licensed facilities that provide trauma-informed care, adequate medical and educational services, and access to legal representation, while also phasing out large congregate care settings in favor of family-based placements. Furthermore, it creates an independent Office of the Ombudsperson to monitor compliance, investigates age assessments that ban invasive medical procedures, and enforces strict data privacy rules to prevent information from custody cases from being used in immigration removal proceedings.

HR 9805: Children’s Safe Welcome Act of 2026

The Children's Safe Welcome Act of 2026 establishes comprehensive protections for noncitizen children in immigration custody, primarily affecting families at the border and children placed in government care. The bill mandates that children remain with their parents or family members unless there is clear evidence of an imminent threat to national security or serious harm to the child, while also requiring the federal government to phase out large congregate care facilities in favor of smaller, family-like settings. Key provisions include strict standards for detention and housing conditions, such as 24-hour access to medical care, nutritious food, and recreational activities, alongside the creation of an independent Ombudsperson office to monitor compliance and investigate complaints. Additionally, the legislation ensures that children receive free legal representation, prohibits the use of welfare records in immigration proceedings, and establishes rigorous oversight for any emergency influx facilities used during surges in arrivals.

HR 10011: No PREJUDICE Act

The No PREJUDICE Act prohibits Department of Homeland Security officers from detaining, arresting, or investigating individuals based on their race, ethnicity, job, or use of a non-English language or an accented English. It specifically bans profiling at locations like bus stops or agricultural sites and forbids targeting people for hobbies or careers. If someone in immigration removal proceedings claims they were stopped for these reasons, they can request a court hearing to prove the violation. A judge who finds the profiling unlawful must dismiss the removal case, while the case continues only if no violation is found.

HB 6158: State management: other; access to certain facilities by federal immigration authorities; regulate. Creates new act.

This bill, titled the Safe Access to Facilities Act, prohibits Michigan state and local government agencies from allowing federal immigration officers into nonpublic areas unless a court issues a judicial warrant. The law specifically targets the conduct of government employees, requiring them to refuse entry to private spaces without a warrant based on probable cause. However, the legislation includes exceptions that allow access without a warrant during criminal investigations, when there is an immediate threat to public safety, or when emergency medical care is needed.

HB 6157: Civil rights: public records; regulation of disclosure of certain information; provide for. Creates new act.

This bill, known as the Shielding Information for Lawful and Ethical Disclosure Act, prevents Michigan government agencies from sharing large amounts of personal data with federal immigration officials without specific authorization. It defines "bulk disclosure" as transferring data on multiple people without reviewing each case individually and allows such sharing only if a court order exists, the transfer serves a specific law enforcement purpose, or it is immediately necessary to protect health and safety. The law applies to all state, county, and municipal departments and officers, while giving the state attorney general the power to seek court orders to stop illegal data sharing.
