No Amnesty for Hamas Sympathizers Act

HR 3724, the "No Amnesty for Hamas Sympathizers Act," blocks immigration protections for Palestinians from specific territories. It nullifies a February 2024 policy allowing deferred enforced departure and prohibits Temporary Protected Status, asylum, refugee status, and parole for individuals who habitually resided in Palestinian-administered territories (Judea/Samaria or Gaza) or hold Palestinian Authority passports. The bill adds these individuals to the list of inadmissible and deportable persons under immigration law, making them ineligible for most forms of U.S. immigration relief. These provisions directly affect Palestinians from those regions who might otherwise qualify for immigration benefits. The bill focuses on geographic and document-based restrictions, not political affiliation.
