This Act may be cited as the ''Border Security Enhancement Act of
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

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

apply to aliens who are in removal proceedings under section 240 of the
Immigration and Nationality Act as of such date.

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

United States Sentencing Commission shall promulgate or amend
sentencing guidelines to provide for increased penalties for persons
convicted of offenses described in section 554 of title 18, United
States Code, as added by section 301.
(b) Requirements.--In carrying out this section, the United States
Sentencing Commission shall--
(1) ensure that the sentencing guidelines, policy
statements, and official commentary reflect the serious nature
of the offenses described in section 554 of title 18, United
States Code, and the need for aggressive and appropriate law
enforcement action to prevent such offenses;
(2) provide adequate base offense levels for offenses under
such section;
(3) account for any aggravating or mitigating circumstances

enhancements;
