2013''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Sequestration is having a devastating effect on the 
        Nation's air traffic control system.
            (2) Sequestration imposes a reduction in funding of $637 
        million on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for the 
        remainder of fiscal year 2013.
            (3) The FAA plans to furlough the vast majority of the 
        FAA's nearly 47,000 employees, including nearly 15,000 air 
        traffic controllers, for approximately one day during each two-
        week pay period in order to comply with sequestration.
            (4) The furloughs began on Sunday, April 21, 2013, and are 
        scheduled to continue through the end of the fiscal year on 
        September 30, 2013. Approximately 10 percent of the FAA's air 
        traffic controllers are expected to be on furlough on any given 
        day during this period.
            (5) The furloughs are causing hundreds of flights to be 
        delayed, resulting in scheduling difficulties for airlines and 
        inconveniences for passengers.
            (6) The FAA reported that approximately 400 flights were 
        delayed nationwide on April 21, 2013, as a result of the 
        furloughs.
            (7) The FAA reported that more than 1,200 flights were 
        delayed nationwide on April 22, 2013, as a result of the 
        furloughs.
            (8) More delays are expected in the coming months during 
        the peak summer travel season.
            (9) The effects of multiple flight delays at airports 
        across the Nation can be compounded as delays at one airport 
        cause planes to arrive late at other airports and also cause 
        passengers to miss connecting flights.
            (10) Air carriers operating in United States air space 
        transport more than 700 million passengers every year.
            (11) Civil aviation accounts for 10 million jobs, is 
        responsible for more than 5 percent of the United States gross 
        domestic product, and contributes $1.3 trillion to the economy 
        every year.
            (12) Businesses of all sizes depend upon a reliable 
        commercial air transportation system. Business travelers 
        account for millions of trips each month.
            (13) Flight delays for business travelers interfere with 
        business plans and result in business meetings being delayed, 
        cancelled, or missed.
            (14) Flight delays affecting the transportation of air 
        cargo also interfere with business.
            (15) The Nation's economy depends upon a reliable 
        commercial air transportation system.
            (16) The FAA also plans to close 149 air traffic control 
        towers at small airports across the Nation on June 15, 2013, in 
        order to comply with sequestration. Despite their size, these 
        airports are an important part of the Nation's air 
        transportation system and economy.
            (17) Air traffic control is a critical government function 
        that is necessary to ensure the safety of air travel and the 
        flying public.
            (18) Inadequate staffing of airport control towers poses a 
        serious threat to public safety.
            (19) Without the service of experienced air traffic 
        controllers in all of the Nation's Federal air traffic control 
        towers, there is an increased risk of accidents involving 
        planes during departure, flight, and landing. Such accidents 
        could result in a tragic loss of life.
            (20) The sequestration of funds associated with the 
        operation of air traffic control towers by the FAA interferes 
        with the safety, reliability, and efficiency of the Nation's 
        air transportation system.
            (21) The operation of air traffic control towers by the 
        FAA, including the compensation paid to air traffic control 
        personnel employed by the FAA, should be exempted from 
        sequestration.

SEC. 3. EXEMPTION FROM SEQUESTRATION FOR OPERATION OF AIR TRAFFIC 
              CONTROL TOWERS.

    (a) In General.--Section 255 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Deficit Control Act of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 905) is amended by adding at the 
end the following new subsection:
    ``(k) Operation of Air Traffic Control Towers.--The following funds 
shall be exempt from reduction under any order issued under this part:
            ``(1) Funds made available for the operation of air traffic 
        control towers by the Federal Aviation Administration, 
        including compensation paid to air traffic control personnel 
        employed by the Federal Aviation Administration.
            ``(2) Funds made available for the operation of contract 
        air traffic control towers under section 47124 of title 49, 
        United States Code.''.
    (b) Effective Date.--The amendment made by section 1 shall apply to 
the Presidential sequestration order for fiscal year 2013 issued under 
section 251A of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act 
of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 901a) and any subsequent sequestration order issued 
under that Act.

Output: Safe and Reliable Air Travel Act of 2013 - Amends the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act) to exempt from reduction, under any sequestration ordered by the President, funds made available for the operation of: (1) air traffic control towers by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), including compensation paid to FAA air traffic control personnel; and (2) contract air traffic control towers.

2006''.

                TITLE I--ALIEN SMUGGLER PROSECUTION ACT

SEC. 101. EFFECTIVE PROSECUTION OF ALIEN SMUGGLERS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) Recent experience shows that alien smuggling is 
        flourishing, is increasingly violent, and is highly profitable.
            (2) Alien smuggling operations also present terrorist and 
        criminal organizations with opportunities for smuggling their 
        members into the United States practically at will.
            (3) Alien smuggling is a lucrative business. Each year, 
        criminal organizations that smuggle or traffic in persons are 
        estimated to generate $9,500,000,000 in revenue worldwide.
            (4) Alien smuggling frequently involves dangerous and 
        inhumane conditions for smuggled aliens. Migrants are 
        frequently abused or exploited, both during their journey and 
        upon reaching the United States. Consequently, aliens smuggled 
        into the United States are at significant risk of physical 
        injury, abuse, and death.
            (5) Notwithstanding that alien smuggling poses a risk to 
        the United States as a whole, uniform guidelines for the 
        prosecution of smuggling offenses are not employed by the 
        various United States attorneys. Understanding that border-area 
        United States attorneys face an overwhelming workload, a lack 
        of sufficient prosecutions by certain United States attorneys 
        has encouraged additional smuggling, and demoralized Border 
        Patrol officers charged with enforcing our anti-smuggling laws.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that the 
Attorney General should adopt, not later than 3 months after the date 
of the enactment of this Act, uniform guidelines for the prosecution of 
smuggling offenses to be followed by each United States attorney in the 
United States.
    (c) Additional Personnel.--In each of the fiscal years 2008 through 
2013, the Attorney General shall, subject to the availability of 
appropriations, increase by not less than 20 the number of attorneys in 
the offices of United States attorneys employed to prosecute cases 
under section 274 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 
1324), as compared to the previous fiscal year.

                  TITLE II--CRIMINAL ALIEN REMOVAL ACT

SEC. 201. EXPEDITED REMOVAL FOR ALIENS INADMISSIBLE ON CRIMINAL 
              GROUNDS.

    (a) In General.--Section 238(b) of the Immigration and Nationality 
Act (8 U.S.C. 1228(b)) is amended--
            (1) in paragraph (1)--
                    (A) by striking ``Attorney General'' and inserting 
                ``Secretary of Homeland Security in the exercise of 
                discretion''; and
                    (B) by striking ``set forth in this subsection or'' 
                and inserting ``set forth in this subsection, in lieu 
                of removal proceedings under'';
            (2) in paragraph (3), by striking ``paragraph (1) until 14 
        calendar days'' and inserting ``paragraph (1) or (3) until 7 
        calendar days'';
            (3) by striking ``Attorney General'' each place it appears 
        in paragraphs (3) and (4) and inserting ``Secretary of Homeland 
        Security'';
            (4) in paragraph (5)--
                    (A) by striking ``described in this section'' and 
                inserting ``described in paragraph (1) or (2)''; and
                    (B) by striking ``the Attorney General may grant in 
                the Attorney General's discretion'' and inserting ``the 
                Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General 
                may grant, in the discretion of the Secretary or 
                Attorney General, in any proceeding'';
            (5) by redesignating paragraphs (3), (4), and (5) as 
        paragraphs (4), (5), and (6), respectively; and
            (6) by inserting after paragraph (2) the following new 
        paragraph:
            ``(3) The Secretary of Homeland Security in the exercise of 
        discretion may determine inadmissibility under section 
        212(a)(2) (relating to criminal offenses) and issue an order of 
        removal pursuant to the procedures set forth in this 
        subsection, in lieu of removal proceedings under section 240, 
        with respect to an alien who--
                    ``(A) has not been admitted or paroled;
                    ``(B) has not been found to have a credible fear of 
                persecution pursuant to the procedures set forth in 
                section 235(b)(1)(B); and
                    ``(C) is not eligible for a waiver of 
                inadmissibility or relief from removal.''.
    (b) Effective Date.--The amendments made by subsection (a) shall 
take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act but shall not 
apply to aliens who are in removal proceedings under section 240 of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act as of such date.

            TITLE III--BORDER TUNNEL PREVENTION ACT OF 2006

SEC. 301. CONSTRUCTION OF BORDER TUNNEL OR PASSAGE.

    (a) In General.--Chapter 27 of title 18, United States Code, is

construction of a tunnel or subterranean passage that crosses the 
international border between the United States and another country, 
other than a lawfully authorized tunnel or passage known to the 
Secretary of Homeland Security and subject to inspection by the Bureau 
of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, shall be imprisoned for not 
more than 20 years.
    ``(b) Any person who recklessly permits the construction or use of 
a tunnel or passage described in subsection (a) on land that the person 
owns or controls shall be imprisoned for not more than 10 years.
    ``(c) Any person who uses a tunnel or passage described in

(including biological weapons), or a member of a terrorist organization 
(as defined in section 212(a)(3)(B)(vi) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(3)(B)(vi))) shall be subject to twice

SEC. 302. DIRECTIVE TO THE UNITED STATES SENTENCING COMMISSION.

    (a) In General.--Pursuant to its authority under section 994 of

Input: Consider Input: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

     This Act may be cited as the ``Ex-Offenders Voting Rights Act of 
2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The right to vote is the most basic constitutive act of 
        citizenship and regaining the right to vote reintegrates 
        offenders into free society. The right to vote may not be 
        abridged or denied by the United States or by any State on 
        account of race, color, gender, or previous condition of 
        servitude. Basic constitutional principles of fairness and 
        equal protection require an equal opportunity for United States 
        citizens to vote in Federal elections.
            (2) Congress has ultimate supervisory power over Federal 
        elections, an authority that has repeatedly been upheld by the 
        Supreme Court.
            (3) Although State laws determine the qualifications for 
        voting in Federal elections, Congress must ensure that those 
        laws are in accordance with the Constitution. Currently, those 
        laws vary throughout the Nation, resulting in discrepancies 
        regarding which citizens may vote in Federal elections.
            (4) An estimated 3,900,000 individuals in the United 
        States, or 1 in 50 adults, currently cannot vote as a result of 
        a felony conviction. Women represent about 500,000 of those 
        3,900,000.
            (5) State disenfranchisement laws disproportionately impact 
        ethnic minorities.
            (6) Fourteen States disenfranchise ex-offenders who have 
        fully served their sentences, regardless of the nature or 
        seriousness of the offense.
            (7) In those States that disenfranchise ex-offenders who 
        have fully served their sentences, the right to vote can be 
        regained in theory, but in practice this possibility is often 
        illusory.
            (8) In 8 States, a pardon or order from the Governor is 
        required for an ex-offender to regain the right to vote. In 2 
        States, ex-offenders must obtain action by the parole or pardon 
        board to regain that right.
            (9) Offenders convicted of a Federal offense often have 
        additional barriers to regaining voting rights. In at least 16 
        States, Federal ex-offenders cannot use the State procedure for 
        restoring their voting rights. The only method provided by 
        Federal law for restoring voting rights to ex-offenders is a 
        Presidential pardon.
            (10) Few persons who seek to have their right to vote 
        restored have the financial and political resources needed to 
        succeed.
            (11) Thirteen percent of the African-American adult male 
        population, or 1,400,000 African-American men, are 
        disenfranchised. Given current rates of incarceration, 3 in 10 
        African-American men in the next generation will be 
        disenfranchised at some point during their lifetimes. Hispanic 
        citizens are also disproportionately disenfranchised, since 
        those citizens are disproportionately represented in the 
        criminal justice system.
            (12) The discrepancies described in this subsection should 
        be addressed by Congress, in the name of fundamental fairness 
        and equal protection.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to restore fairness in the 
Federal election process by ensuring that ex-offenders who have fully 
served their sentences are not denied the right to vote.

                    (B) the payment of damages by the individual;
                    (C) periodic reporting by the individual to an 
                officer of the court; or
                    (D) supervision of the individual by an officer of 
                the court.

SEC. 4. RIGHTS OF CITIZENS.

     The right of an individual who is a citizen of the United States 
to vote in any election for Federal office shall not be denied or 
abridged because that individual has been convicted of a criminal

            (1) is serving a felony sentence in a correctional 
        institution or facility; or
