HB 3004 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibiting entry by illegal aliens

HB 3004 creates two new state-level offenses: "illegal entry" (entering West Virginia without legal authorization) and "illegal reentry" (re-entering after removal). The bill requires the state Criminal Identification Bureau to maintain records of such incidents and prohibits community supervision or parole for individuals convicted of these offenses. It also provides immunity to law enforcement officials enforcing these provisions and establishes court procedures for ordering deportation. The bill applies directly to individuals entering or re-entering the state without legal status, ensuring prosecutions proceed regardless of federal immigration status determinations.
