Public Description:  

The bill would close a loophole in current immigration law by making inadmissible an illegal alien who has been here unlawfully for between six months and one year unless he/she has remained outside the United States for at least three years. (Current law only applies this three-year bar on admissibility to illegal aliens who have already left the United States .)
