In addition to amounts otherwise available, there is appropriated to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for fiscal year 2025, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $45,000,000,000 to remain available until September 30, 2029, for the purposes described in subsection (b). Amounts made available under subsection
(a)shall only be used for family residential center capacity and single adult alien detention capacity. The Department of Homeland Security may detain family units of aliens at family residential centers, as described in subsections
(b)and (d), pending a decision on whether the aliens are to be removed from the United States and, if such aliens are ordered removed from the United States, until such aliens are removed. In this section, the term family residential center means a facility used by the Department of Homeland Security to detain family units of aliens (including alien children who are not unaccompanied alien children) who are encountered or apprehended by the Department of Homeland Security, regardless of whether the facility is licensed by the State or a political subdivision of the State in which the facility is located. To efficiently utilize the funding appropriated by this section, the detention standards for the single adult detention capacity described in subsection
(b)shall be set in the sole discretion of the Secretary of Homeland Security.
