Disapproving the rule submitted by the Secretary of Homeland Security relating to "Notice of implementation of the Keeping Families Together process.".
HRES 1420 is a disapproval resolution that stops a rule issued by the Department of Homeland Security regarding the "Keeping Families Together process." The resolution directs Congress to reject the rule, meaning it will have no legal effect and cannot be enforced. This resolution specifically targets a procedural rule related to immigration procedures, not new policy. It does not change immigration law or directly affect individuals but prevents the rule from being implemented. As a disapproval resolution, it is procedural and focuses solely on blocking the rule's enforcement.
