Border Security, Cartel Interdiction, and State Coordination Act

To strengthen border security and restore operational control of the southwest border, this bill authorizes additional funding and personnel for joint federal anti-cartel interdiction task forces; expands investigative authority for the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to target cross-border trafficking networks, money laundering, and corruption tied to cartel activity, subject to existing constitutional and judicial safeguards; requires accelerated asylum screening and adjudication timelines with increased immigration judge capacity and case management support; establishes minimum federal detention standards for health, safety, access to counsel, and timely review; and creates a formal Border State Enforcement Coordination Council, composed of federal officials and representatives from border states, to advise on enforcement priorities, intelligence-sharing, infrastructure needs, and operational cooperation consistent with federal law.
