SEND THEM BACK Act of 2025
This bill (HR 190) would require the expedited removal of individuals who entered the U.S. illegally on or after January 20, 2021, regardless of whether they claimed asylum or feared persecution. It directly affects noncitizens who entered without inspection after that date, removing standard asylum processing for them. The key provision mandates faster deportation without court hearings for this group, except for current U.S. military members as of January 1, 2025. The bill changes immigration enforcement procedures by bypassing asylum eligibility checks for a specific cohort of recent arrivals. It does not address broader immigration policy or provide new pathways for legal status.
