What this amendment would do

Mrs. Shaheen submitted this amendment to the bill S. 5, which deals with requiring the Secretary of Homeland Security to take certain aliens into custody.

The amendment changes the bill by setting specific rules for when the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General must take an alien into custody. It covers situations where an alien has been convicted of certain offenses, or has been arrested or charged with those offenses and failed to appear for a hearing or procedural appearance.
