READI Act
The READI Act prohibits U.S. military installations from housing undocumented immigrants or individuals in immigration removal proceedings. It directly affects military bases (excluding overseas locations) and individuals without lawful immigration status or undergoing deportation processes. The law explicitly bans using domestic military facilities for this purpose, aligning with existing immigration rules that define "unlawful presence." This creates a clear policy change by restricting the use of military infrastructure for immigration detention.
