No Private Bounty Hunters for Immigration Enforcement Act

Summary

The bill stops the Department of Homeland Security from contracting or paying private companies to locate, surveil, or verify the location of individuals under civil immigration enforcement. It ends existing contracts, blocks new ones, and bars federal funds from being used for per‑person or bonus payments to these firms, with a narrow exception for data‑analytics tools under direct government control. The measure aims to curb the use of private “bounty hunters” in immigration cases.
