Expedited Removal of Aliens Arriving by Sea Under Section 235(b)(1)(A)(iii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act

Summary

The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) has issued a notice allowing for the expedited removal of certain aliens who arrive in the United States by sea, without being admitted or paroled, and have not been physically present in the country for the past two years. This move aims to deter illegal migration by sea and prevent loss of life, while also redirecting resources from counter-terrorism and homeland security efforts.
