Show full summary
  • People who carried out, planned, financed, or materially supported the attacks would be inadmissible and barred from asylum and other immigration relief.
  • The bill adds the new ground to deportability rules so affected noncitizens could be placed in removal proceedings under existing law.
  • The Department of Homeland Security must report to Congress annually, starting within one year, counting how many people are found inadmissible under the new ground and how many are found removable.

Entry and relief barred for Hamas attackers and supporters

If enacted, noncitizens who carried out, planned, financed, supported, or helped the Hamas attacks that began on October 7, 2023 would be denied admission and visas. They would also be deportable if already in the United States. They would be ineligible for immigration relief, including asylum and relief under section 2242 of the 1999 Appropriations Act. The bill would also name Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the terrorism bar and cover members, not just representatives.
