Protecting our Communities from Sexual Predators Act
This bill amends U.S. immigration law to strengthen detention, inadmissibility, and deportability rules for non-citizens convicted of or admitting to sexual assault offenses. It directly affects non-citizens who have been convicted of, arrested for, or admitted to committing acts constituting sexual assault as defined in current law. Key provisions require automatic detention for such individuals, make them automatically inadmissible to the U.S., and mandate deportation if already present. These changes apply to all non-citizens meeting the specified criteria under existing immigration statutes.
