          TITLE I--STATE CRIMINAL ALIEN ASSISTANCE PROGRAM II

SEC. 101. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``State Criminal Alien Assistance 
Program II Act of 1999''.

SEC. 102. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Federal policies and strategies aimed at curbing 
        illegal immigration and criminal alien activity implemented 
        along our Nation's southwest border influence the number of 
        crossings, especially their location.
            (2) States and local governments were reimbursed 
        approximately 60 percent of the costs of the incarceration of 
        criminal aliens in fiscal year 1996 when only 90 jurisdictions 
        applied for such reimbursement. In subsequent years, the number 
        of local jurisdictions receiving reimbursement has increased. 
        For fiscal year 1999, 280 local jurisdictions applied, and 
        reimbursement amounted to only 40 percent of the costs incurred 
        by those jurisdictions.
            (3) Certain counties, often with a small taxpayer base, 
        located on or near the border across from sometimes highly 
        populated areas of Mexico, suffer a substantially 
        disproportionate share of the impact of criminal illegal aliens 
        on its law enforcement and criminal justice systems.
            (4) A University of Arizona study released in January 1998 
        reported that at least 2 of the 4 counties located on Arizona's 
        border of Mexico, Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, are burdened 
        with this problem--
                    (A) for example, in 1998, Santa Cruz County had 
                12.7 percent of Arizona's border population but 50 
                percent of alien crossings and 32.5 percent of illegal 
                alien apprehensions;
                    (B) for fiscal year 1998, it is estimated that, of 
                its total criminal justice budget of 5,000,000 
                ($5,033,000), Santa Cruz County spent $1,900,000 (39 
                percent) to process criminal illegal aliens, of which 
                over half was not reimbursed by Federal monies; and
                    (C) Santa Cruz County has not obtained relief from 
                this burden, despite repeated appeals to Federal and 
                State officials.
            (5) In the State of Texas, the border counties of Cameron, 
        Dimmit, El Paso, Hidalgo, Kinney, Val Verde, and Webb bore the 
        unreimbursed costs of apprehension, prosecution, indigent 
        defense, and other related services for criminal aliens who 
        served more than 142,000 days in county jails.
            (6) Throughout Texas nonborder counties bore similar 
        unreimbursed costs for apprehension, prosecution, indigent 
        defense, and other related services for criminal aliens who 
        served more than 1,000,000 days in county jails.
            (7) The State of Texas has incurred substantial additional 
        unreimbursed costs for State law enforcement efforts made 
        necessary by the presence of criminal illegal aliens.
            (8) The Federal Government should reimburse States and 
        units of local government for the related costs incurred by the 
        State for the imprisonment of any illegal alien.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this title is--
            (1) to assist States and local communities by providing 
        financial assistance for expenditures for illegal juvenile 
        aliens, and for related costs to States and units of local 
        government that suffer a substantially disproportionate share 
        of the impact of criminal illegal aliens on their law 
        enforcement and criminal justice systems; and
            (2) to ensure equitable treatment for those States and 
        local governments that are affected by Federal policies and 
strategies aimed at curbing illegal immigration and criminal alien 
activity implemented on the southwest border.
