HR 7456 United States House · 119th Congress

Fundamental Immigration Fairness Act

The Fundamental Immigration Fairness Act would prevent the Department of Homeland Security from detaining non-citizens who are arriving at or departing from DHS field offices or immigration court facilities before a removal order is issued, unless they are found not of good moral character by an immigration judge. It clarifies that an immigration judge cannot determine someone lacks good moral character based solely on unlawful presence or entry into the U.S. The bill also prohibits publicly displaying the names of non-government parties in immigration proceedings within court facilities. These changes aim to limit unnecessary pre-removal detention and protect privacy for individuals in immigration cases.
