SECTION 1. JUDICIAL DEPORTATION.

    Section 3583 of title 18, United States Code, is amended--

        subparagraphs (A), (B), and (C), respectively;
            (2) in the first sentence, by inserting ``(1)'' before

            (4) by adding at the end the following:
    ``(2)(A) Notwithstanding any provision of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act, if an alien defendant is subject to deportation, the 
court may order, as a condition of supervised release, that he be 
deported and remain outside the United States, and that he be delivered 
to a duly authorized immigration official for deportation in accordance 
with such order.
    ``(B) While such alien defendant is awaiting deportation pursuant 
to such order, the Attorney General shall take such alien into custody 
and shall not release such alien on bond, parole, or otherwise, unless 
so permitted by order of the sentencing court.
    ``(C) During the period such an alien defendant is to remain 
outside the United States as a condition of supervised release, the 
Attorney General may not consent to the reentry of such alien.
    ``(D) Nothing in this section prevents the Attorney General from 
initiating deportation proceedings against such an alien defendant 
pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act, but such alien 
defendant may not be released from custody except pursuant to this 
section.''.
