00 2023-04-27 Introduced in Senate 2024-01-05T00:28:26Z <p><strong>Fair Adjudications for Immigrants Act</strong></p> <p>This bill narrows the scope of certain crime-based grounds for barring or removing a non-U.S. national (<i></i><i>alien</i> under federal law) from the United States. (Generally, a conviction for certain crimes, such as a crime that carries a term of incarceration of a certain length, may constitute grounds for denying an individual certain immigration benefits.)</p> <p>The bill redefines the term <em>conviction</em> to exclude convictions that have been dismissed, expunged, deferred, annulled, invalidated, withheld, vacated, or pardoned. The term must also exclude adjudications where a court issued a recommendation against removal, an order of probation without entry of judgment, or a similar disposition.</p> <p>In addition, any reference to a term of imprisonment or sentence must, unless otherwise provided (1) only consider the period of incarceration ordered by a court, and (2) exclude any suspended portion of a sentence. Currently, for immigration purposes, a term of incarceration includes any part of the sentence that was suspended.</p> <p>These provisions pertaining to the definition of <em>conviction</em> and terms of imprisonment shall apply to convictions and judgments entered either before or after this bill's enactment. </p> <p>Furthermore, certain crime-based grounds for barring or removing a non-U.S. national shall not apply if the sentencing court issues a recommendation that the alien not be removed on the basis of the conviction. </p>
