The bill would
- Authorize Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to purchase up to 50 nonintrusive inspection (NII) systems for use at the southern border of the United States
- By March 30, 2027, require CBP to inspect at least 10 percent of vehicles exiting the country into Mexico
- Require Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to hire 200 additional agents
- Impose reporting requirements on CBP
Estimated budgetary effects would mainly stem from
- Costs associated with construction and with procurement and maintenance of NII systems
- Adding CBP and ICE personnel
Areas of significant uncertainty include
- Projecting the amount of vehicle traffic into Mexico from the United States
- Predicting the configuration of land ports of entry
