Tlaib, Rashida [D-MI-12] (D-MI) - Cosponsors: 52 - Policy area: Immigration - Touches household money: no - Last recorded action: 2026-10-31 ## Summary **This bill would create a public, multilingual detainee locator** and add new transparency rules for medical transfers and CBP arrest reporting to improve family access and oversight. It would require faster postings of custody data and routine public reports on enforcement activity. - Families and legal representatives would get faster, clearer notifications for medical transfers, including facility contact details and the reason for transfer, with a required family notice within 5 hours and correction acknowledgments within one week. - Detainees would be easier to find because the locator must post key custody data within 8 hours, be searchable by registration number, name, or birth data, exclude information on people under 18, and keep records at least 60 days after release. Long in-transit transfers must show origin, destination, mode, and an estimated arrival time. - DHS staff, contractors, and the public would face stronger accountability. Personnel who fail to post timely data could face furlough, pay or grade cuts, or suspension up to 30 days, contractors can lose renewals, and DHS must report on enforcement operations every 90 days with counts, costs, and involved personnel. ## Cosponsors (52) - Rep.
