HR 10222: No HUD Funding for Sanctuary Cities Act

This bill would prohibit any state or local government designated as a "sanctuary jurisdiction" from receiving grant funds distributed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). A jurisdiction is defined as a sanctuary if it has laws, policies, or practices that restrict officials from sharing information about an individual's immigration status or from complying with federal requests to detain or notify about the release of individuals. The funding restriction would apply to grants distributed 180 days after the bill's enactment. To determine which jurisdictions qualify for this ineligibility, the HUD Secretary is required to consult with the Secretary of Homeland Security.

HR 10040: No TSA Data for ICE Act

This bill, titled the No TSA Data for ICE Act, prohibits the Transportation Security Administration from sharing passenger data with U.S. Customs and Border Protection or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It specifically bars these agencies from using TSA information or data from private brokers to perform immigration enforcement functions. Additionally, the legislation prevents the denial, suspension, or early termination of Trusted Traveler programs like PreCheck and Global Entry if an individual's participation in First Amendment-protected activities is the reason. The law defines the restricted data as personally identifiable information about flight passengers obtained from the TSA or private sector entities.

HR 9944: TPS Review Act

The Temporary Protected Status Review Act restores the ability of courts to review decisions by the Department of Homeland Security to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designations for foreign nationals. Under this bill, the government must publish detailed written findings explaining why a country no longer qualifies for TPS protection, and these decisions would be subject to a legal challenge in federal court. If a TPS designation is terminated, the affected individuals would remain in the United States with their current status and work authorization intact while the legal challenge is pending. Additionally, the legislation requires the government to follow specific administrative procedures, such as considering all available evidence and avoiding bias, before making any termination decisions.

HR 9943: Businessowner Immigration Rights and Responsibilities Information Act of 2026

This bill directs the Small Business Administration to create educational resources for small business owners and employees regarding their rights and responsibilities during immigration enforcement actions. The SBA must develop online modules, a physical card, and planning guides that explain how to respond to searches or arrests, including the constitutional right to remain silent and consult a lawyer. These materials will be made available in English and the 15 most commonly spoken languages in the U.S., with content reviewed by legal experts and government agencies to ensure accuracy.

SJRES 189: A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to protect United States citizenship.

This joint resolution proposes a new amendment to the U.S. Constitution to clarify who qualifies as a citizen at birth. It would restrict automatic citizenship to children born in the United States only if at least one parent is a U.S. citizen, a lawful permanent resident, or an alien with lawful status serving in the military. The bill aims to limit the scope of the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause and explicitly grants Congress the authority to pass laws enforcing these new requirements. If ratified, this change would alter the legal definition of birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants or other non-citizen parents.

HR 8563: Investing in the American Dream Act

The Investing in the American Dream Act expands eligibility for Small Business Administration loans to include small businesses owned by certain non-citizens. Specifically, it allows businesses to qualify if they are at least 51 percent owned and controlled by individuals who are lawfully present in the United States and authorized to work, such as refugees, asylees, permanent residents, and specific nonimmigrant visa holders. The bill also permits businesses owned by individuals living outside the United States to apply for these loans. This change aims to broaden access to federal financial support for small enterprises by removing previous restrictions based on the citizenship or permanent residency status of the business owners.

HRES 1168: Recognizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for their work in protecting communities from violent criminals and illegal aliens.

This resolution formally acknowledges the work of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in protecting communities from violent criminals and illegal immigrants. It calls on state and local law enforcement to cooperate with federal partners in investigating threats against ICE officers and condemns violence directed at federal law enforcement personnel. The measure also thanks ICE agents for their expanded security roles at airports during a partial government shutdown. As a congressional resolution, it does not change laws or funding but serves as an official statement of support and condemnation of violence.

HR 7759: Afghanistan Vetting and Accountability Act of 2026

This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security to verify personal and biometric information and conduct in-person interviews for all individuals evacuated from Afghanistan between January 20, 2021, and January 20, 2022, excluding U.S. citizens and military members. It mandates the creation of a database tracking these individuals' vetting status, criminal records, and receipt of unemployment compensation or federal benefits. Afghan evacuees who do not provide the required information or complete the in-person vetting process would be ineligible to receive unemployment compensation or other federal means-tested public benefits. The bill also requires quarterly reports to Congress on compliance and independent audits by the Government Accountability Office to verify implementation.

HR 7758: The Dalilah Law

This bill, known as the Dalilah Law, would restrict commercial driver's licenses to U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and holders of specific work visas. It requires states to verify the citizenship or visa status of all CDL applicants and renewals within 180 days of enactment, while also mandating English language proficiency testing for all license holders. States that fail to enforce these requirements or issue licenses to ineligible individuals risk losing federal transportation funding. The law also imposes lifetime disqualifications for operating commercial vehicles without proper immigration status.
