Plain-English Summary

The proposed legislation would create a legal pathway for American citizens and their families to sue the federal government for damages if they are harmed by crimes committed by people who are in the country illegally. It would also establish a fund to compensate victims of such crimes. The bill aims to hold the government accountable for immigration enforcement and provide financial relief to crime victims and their families.
