A bill to require the Office of Detention Oversight to conduct audits of detention facilities and to restrict the detention of aliens at such facilities until after any deficiencies revealed in such audits have been properly remediated.

# Summary of S. 3932 **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would require the Office of Detention Oversight—a government agency that inspects immigration detention facilities—to conduct regular audits of these facilities to check for safety and compliance problems. If audits find deficiencies (such as inadequate medical care, sanitation issues, or unsafe conditions), the bill would prevent immigration authorities from detaining people at those facilities until the problems are fixed. **Who It Affects** The bill primarily affects people detained by immigration authorities while their cases are processed.

It could also impact immigration detention facility operations and federal immigration enforcement agencies like ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), which would need to address audit findings before continuing to use facilities. **Current Status** S. 3932 was introduced by Senator Andy Kim (D-NJ) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full Senate. No action has been taken on the bill at this time.
