H.R. 1714: Criminal Illegal Alien Report Act

This bill, titled the Criminal Illegal Alien Report Act, aims to require the Secretary of Homeland Security to prepare and submit a report to Congress within 60 days of its enactment. The report would focus on individuals who are in the United States due to a grant of parole under specific provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act, particularly related to citizens of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, as well as any other grants of parole under section 212(d)(5) of the Act.

Key Components of the Bill

• Report Requirement: The Secretary of Homeland Security must provide a comprehensive report that details the number of individuals on parole who have committed crimes in the United States.
• Demographic Information: The report will also include information about the nationalities of these individuals.
• Terrorism and Criminal Ties: Additionally, the report will address any connections these individuals may have with terrorist organizations or transnational criminal groups.

Implications of the Bill

The bill does not propose any changes to existing laws or regulations regarding immigration or law enforcement. Its main function is to gather and present data to Congress about specific groups of individuals who have been granted parole, focusing particularly on criminal activities and affiliations. This is intended to provide lawmakers with insights that could inform future immigration and public safety policies.
