Plain-English Summary

The legislation would establish new protections and procedures for unaccompanied children who cross U.S. borders, including requirements for their care, legal representation, and processing through the immigration system. It would affect immigration agencies, child welfare organizations, and the children themselves by setting standards for how minors are treated while in government custody and ensuring they have access to legal help during immigration proceedings.
