Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to make noncitizens inadmissible if convicted of, or admitting to, acts that meet the elements of 18 U.S.C. §1382 (entering military, naval, or Coast Guard property). It also makes noncitizens deportable if convicted under 18 U.S.C. §1382.
