Summary
Southern Border Transparency Act of 2023 This bill requires various reports on immigration, particularly regarding individuals paroled into the United States. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection must monthly publish details on non-U.S. nationals ( aliens under federal law) paroled into the United States at ports of entry or individuals encountered between land ports of entry and subsequently granted parole. The report must include details regarding citizenship, nationality, and demographic information. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services must quarterly publish the number of humanitarian parole petitions received and the number of those granted, disaggregated by nationality. Quarterly, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) must report on individuals encountered or apprehended at the southern U.S. border and within nearby patrol sectors. The report must contain information including citizenship, nationality, demographics, the number receiving fear of persecution screenings, and immigration outcomes. DHS must also annually report on individuals paroled into the United States on humanitarian grounds, including demographics, employment authorizations, and current immigration status.
