Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change federal aviation law so that private aircraft owners or operators could not have their flight information withheld from the public under FAA privacy programs when flying for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement or Customs and Border Protection to detain, deport, or transport people in immigration custody with federal funding. It would also require the Secretary of Homeland Security to publish flight data within 72 hours after each immigration-related detention, deportation, or transport flight. The published data would include departure and arrival times and airports, aircraft identification, the number of detainees boarding and leaving, and detainee demographic data such as nationality, sex, age group, family status, and restraints used.
