CRUSADE Act
The CRUSADE Act amends immigration law to require applicants for special immigrant visas to explicitly disavow Sharia law. Under this provision, individuals seeking these specific visas must take an additional oath affirming their commitment to uphold the U.S. Constitution. The bill directly affects foreign nationals applying for special immigrant status by adding a new eligibility requirement related to their legal and religious beliefs. This change does not alter the general immigration process but imposes a specific condition on one category of visa applicants.
