Summary
The bill would create an independent 30-member Department of Homeland Security Border Oversight Commission, with northern and southern border subcommittees, to evaluate border enforcement policies and recommend improvements regarding due process, civil and human rights, property rights, migrant deaths, and agent safety. It would also establish an Ombudsman for Border and Immigration-Related Concerns within DHS to receive and resolve complaints, inspect detention and processing facilities, and assist individuals affected by enforcement actions, including uses of force. The text provided was truncated, so provisions beyond the Ombudsman's initial functions, including training requirements, are not reflected in this summary.
