Build the Wall and Deport Them All Act
HR 7594 codifies existing immigration enforcement policies into law, primarily by making executive actions from 2017-2019 permanent. It ends the "catch and release" practice for border apprehensions, mandates border wall construction and other security measures, enforces restrictions on "sanctuary cities," implements the "Remain in Mexico" policy, and limits entry for migrants. The bill also modifies birthright citizenship rules under the Immigration and Nationality Act, requiring at least one parent to be a U.S. citizen, national, or legal permanent resident for a child born in the U.S. to automatically gain citizenship. It directly affects immigrants seeking entry or asylum, those in border detention, and individuals applying for citizenship through birth in the U.S.
