Short-Term Holding Facility Standards Restoration Act.

Summary

The bill requires that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) holding facilities be used only for short‑term custody—no more than 12 hours—except in clearly defined emergency situations. It also mandates basic sanitary and nutritional standards for detainees and creates documentation, reporting, and audit requirements to enforce the limits. The goal is to protect detainee welfare and keep facilities consistent with their original short‑term purpose.
