Private Detention Accountability Act

This bill requires the Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to send a report to four congressional committees within 30 days after the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Detention Oversight finishes an audit of a facility holding immigrants. The report must include the audit results and the steps taken to fix any problems found. The bill also bars ICE from placing newly detained immigrants in a detention facility unless the facility has been audited, any problems have been fixed, and the report has been submitted. This rule applies to facilities that open on or after the bill becomes law and to existing facilities that have already been audited.
