Homeland Security by this Act may be used to prevent any of the following persons from
entering, for the purpose of conducting oversight, any facility operated by or for the
Department of Homeland Security used to detain or otherwise house aliens, or to make any
temporary modification at any such facility that in any way alters what is observed by a
visiting member of Congress or such designated employee, compared to what would be
observed in the absence of such modification:
(1) A Member of Congress.
(2) An employee of the United States House of Representatives or the United States
Senate designated by such a Member for the purposes of this section.
(b) Nothing in this section may be construed to require a Member of Congress to provide
prior notice of the intent to enter a facility described in subsection (a) for the purpose of
conducting oversight.
(c) With respect to individuals described in subsection (a)(2), the Department of Homeland
Security may require that a request be made at least 24 hours in advance of an intent to enter
