AOC bill HR 5070 rewards criminals for past crimes

AOC introduced a bill the would give a person convicted of crimes access to federal benefits after release. Federal grants, retirement, etc. Fortunately, like most of her trash legislation it languishes in committee. (Can think of many crimes where a person should not have access restored.)

Text of HR 5070 A Just Society: The Mercy In Re-entry Act

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the “A Just Society: The Mercy In Re-entry Act”.

SEC. 2. FEDERAL PUBLIC BENEFIT ACCESSIBILITY FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS.

(a) In General.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, an individual may not be denied any Federal public benefit solely on the basis that the individual was convicted of a criminal offense (whether under Federal, State, tribal, or foreign law).

(b) Definition.—For purposes of this section, the term “Federal public benefit” means—

(1) any grant, contract, loan, professional license, or commercial license provided by an agency of the United States or by appropriated funds of the United States; and

(2) any retirement, welfare, health, disability, public or assisted housing, postsecondary education, food assistance, unemployment benefit, or any other similar benefit for which payments or assistance are provided to an individual, household, or family eligibility unit by an agency of the United States or by appropriated funds of the United States.

Another AOC cosponsored bill is HR 5383 New Way Forward Act (introduced Dec 10, 2019)

Bill is discussed in the Breitbart article:

"Exclusive– Kris Kobach: Bernie Sanders Supports Flying Deported Illegal Alien Criminals Back to USA"

H.R.5383 - New Way Forward Act

Summary:

This bill makes changes to immigration enforcement, including ending mandatory detention in certain cases.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shall not enter into or extend any contract with any public or private for-profit entity to own or operate a facility to detain aliens in DHS custody.

The bill provides for various protections related to detaining aliens, such as (1) requiring DHS to make an initial custody determination and establish probable cause within 48 hours of taking an alien into custody, (2) establishing in hearings related to such determinations a presumption that the alien be released, and (3) requiring immigration judges to impose the least restrictive detention conditions necessary.

A DHS officer may not interrogate a person as to immigration status based on factors such as the person's race, religion, sexual orientation, or spoken language.

The bill removes mandatory detention requirements for certain aliens, such as asylum seekers with a credible fear of persecution.

Removal proceedings against certain aliens previously admitted into the United States must commence within five years of the alien becoming deportable or inadmissible. The bill also removes certain crime-related grounds of inadmissibility and deportability.

The bill gives immigration judges discretion to provide relief from removal if the removal is not based on certain crime-related grounds.

State or local officers are prohibited from performing certain immigration enforcement functions, such as apprehending aliens. The National Crime Information Center database shall not contain an alien's immigration information.

The bill repeals provisions providing criminal penalties for improper entry or reentry into the United States.

No mention of a whistleblower or Spidel in the article but gives a good recap of Janet Napolitano's failures as head of DHS and AZ governor.

see a lot of AOC retweets, a Schiff and AZ Sinema retweet.

Makes me question the whistleblower claim against [Hussain] era DHS. Will wait and see if other Anons find credible news.
