Official Summary

Congressional Research Service summary

Crime Doesn't Fly Act of 2023 This bill prohibits the use of Immigration and Customs Enforcement warrants for the arrest, removal, or deportation of a non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) as proof of identity at an airport security checkpoint unless the non-U.S. national is being removed from the United States pursuant to immigration laws.

Key Points

Main provisions of the bill

Prohibits the use of ICE warrants as proof of identity at airport security checkpoints, except for those being deported
Aims to protect the privacy and rights of non-U.S. citizens traveling through U.S. airports
Could make it easier for non-U.S. citizens to travel through airports without having to disclose their immigration status

How This Impacts Americans

Potential effects on citizens and communities

This bill would primarily affect non-U.S. citizens, or 'aliens' under federal law, who are traveling through U.S. airports. If passed, it could make the airport security process more streamlined and less invasive for these individuals, as they would no longer be required to show ICE warrants as proof of identity. This could have a positive impact on the travel experience and privacy of non-U.S. citizens.
