Domestic Jobs Protection Act
This bill amends the definition of "unauthorized alien" in immigration law by removing the phrase "or by the Attorney General" from Section 274A(h)(3) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. It is a procedural change to an existing legal definition with no new policy requirements or direct impact on specific groups. The bill does not alter enforcement mechanisms or create new obligations for employers or immigrants. This is a technical revision to statutory language, not a substantive policy change.
