A Member of Congress need not give notice before a visit
What the document says“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.”
Section 546(b). The section may not be read to require a member of Congress to give notice before entering a detention facility for oversight. Subsection (c) allows the department to require 24 hours notice from a designated congressional employee, but not from a member.
What the document actually says“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.”
A member of Congress does not have to give notice first. They may show up to look at a site.
Staff sent in a member's place are treated differently. The department may ask them for a day's notice.
