Original Note:
Federal law makes clear that Members are entitled to access detention facilities, with no requirement of prior notice. DHS may only require notice in advance from congressional staff. This provision was once again included in a GOP-sponsored appropriations bill weeks ago. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/4213?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22Homeland+security+appropriations+2026%22%7D&s=1&r=1 https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/2882/text
