Fundamental Immigration Fairness Act

This bill would bar the Secretary of Homeland Security from taking an immigrant into custody, before a removal order is entered, while the person is arriving at or leaving a Department of Homeland Security field office or an immigration court facility. The limit would not apply to a person whom an immigration judge finds is not of good moral character under federal immigration law. The bill states that a finding of lacking good moral character may not be based only on a person's unlawful presence in or unlawful entry into the United States. It would also bar the Attorney General from publicly displaying the names of parties, other than the United States, to immigration proceedings outside courtrooms or in public areas of immigration court facilities.
