No Illegal Captivity and Extensions Act of 2026

Summary

The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to remove the legal authority for immigration detainers and forbids the Department of Homeland Security from issuing or enforcing any detainer, even through agreements with state or local police. It would affect non‑citizens who are currently held on detainer requests and the law‑enforcement agencies that rely on those requests. Supporters say it ends unlawful detention and protects civil liberties.
