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.

HRES 1486: Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

H.R. 1486 is a resolution introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach President Donald Trump for high crimes and misdemeanors. The bill alleges that the President violated his constitutional oath by transforming federal immigration agencies into unaccountable paramilitary forces that commit unjustified killings, cover up misconduct, and terrorize communities. Key provisions cite specific incidents involving the deaths of civilians and the obstruction of state and local investigations as evidence of these abuses. If passed, the resolution would formally exhibit articles of impeachment to the Senate for a subsequent trial.

S 5371: Stopping Border Surges Act

The Stopping Border Surges Act proposes significant changes to U.S. immigration law regarding unaccompanied children and asylum seekers. It mandates that unaccompanied alien children be repatriated to their home countries if they do not meet specific criteria, while also allowing for the detention of families who entered the country together for misdemeanor border-crossing charges. For asylum applicants, the bill restricts eligibility to those arriving at designated ports of entry and shortens the deadline to file an application from one year to six months. It introduces a "safe third country" provision that can bar asylum claims if an individual transited through another nation without seeking protection there first. Additionally, the legislation requires audio or video recording of expedited removal interviews, imposes criminal penalties for asylum fraud, and terminates asylum status if an individual voluntarily returns to their home country.

HR 10259: DHS Community Consultation Act of 2026

The DHS Community Consultation Act of 2026 requires the Department of Homeland Security to consult with local officials and community members before building or leasing any immigration detention facility. The bill mandates that the department assess potential impacts on local infrastructure, such as water, power, and roads, while holding public meetings and allowing a 60-day period for public comment. Additionally, it prohibits the construction of new facilities in municipalities that have officially banned them and forbids using military bases or converting non-residential structures like warehouses into detention centers. The legislation also requires coordination with local health authorities to create protocols for treating and containing contagious disease outbreaks within these facilities.

S 5337: Keep Our Communities Safe Act of 2026

The Keep Our Communities Safe Act of 2026 significantly expands the authority of the Secretary of Homeland Security to detain non-citizens who are facing removal from the United States. The bill removes time limits on detention during removal proceedings and allows for indefinite detention after a final order is issued if specific conditions, such as national security threats or public safety risks, are certified by government officials. It restricts access to bond hearings for many detainees, requiring them instead to prove they are not flight risks or community threats through clear and convincing evidence. Additionally, the legislation establishes administrative review processes that permit detention beyond standard removal periods if an individual fails to cooperate with deportation efforts or poses a continuing danger.

HR 8906: Ban Chinese Communist and Islamist Home Ownership Act

This bill prohibits individuals from specific foreign nations, including China, and designated terrorist states from buying or owning residential property in the United States. It requires the President to issue rules enforcing this ban and mandates that any existing homes owned by these groups be sold to U.S. citizens or corporations within two years. The law defines "covered persons" broadly to include citizens of targeted countries, their affiliated corporations, and entities linked to foreign adversaries or state sponsors of terrorism.

HR 9854: Citizenship Act of 2026

The Citizenship Act of 2026 redefines the term "invader" to include individuals who are unlawfully present in the United States or those seeking entry specifically for the purpose of giving birth. Under this legislation, children born in the U.S. to these designated invaders would not be entitled to birthright citizenship if their mothers were not lawfully admitted or if the parents do not meet specific residency requirements. The bill also explicitly excludes children born through commercial surrogacy contracts involving nationals of certain countries from acquiring citizenship. Additionally, the act declares that courts cannot review the President's or Congress's determination that an invasion is occurring.

HR 9824: Daycare Not Detentions Act of 2026

The Daycare Not Detentions Act of 2026 provides additional funding to the Department of Health and Human Services to support child care programs, including the Child Care and Development Block Grant, Head Start, and preschool development grants. These funds are intended to help states and organizations cover necessary expenses for these programs through fiscal year 2029. The bill also rescinds $70 billion in previously allocated money for U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that has not yet been spent. Overall, the legislation redirects federal resources toward early childhood education and care rather than immigration enforcement activities.

HR 9773: Permanent Trump Secure Border Act

This bill, known as the Permanent Trump Secure Border Act, introduces significant changes to U.S. immigration law affecting asylum seekers, border security, and family detention policies. It tightens asylum eligibility by establishing a "safe third country" rule that bars individuals who transited through other nations without seeking protection there, while simultaneously expanding the list of criminal convictions that disqualify applicants from asylum. The legislation also restricts employment authorization for asylum seekers, limits the use of parole for humanitarian reasons, and mandates the return of land border arrivals to contiguous foreign territories when detention capacity is unavailable. Additionally, the bill clarifies standards for family detention, expands penalties for visa overstays, and modifies protections for unaccompanied children by requiring faster hearings and limiting special immigrant status for those unable to reunite with parents.
