Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

Ban and removal for terrorist relatives

If enacted, the bill would make many relatives of certain labeled foreign threat actors inadmissible to the United States and deportable. Covered relatives would include spouses and former spouses; parents and parents‑in‑law; children and stepchildren; siblings (including half‑blood); grandparents and grandchildren; and nieces and nephews. Covered threat actors would include specially designated global terrorists, senior leaders of designated terrorist organizations, senior officials of listed hostile governments (for example, Iran, the People’s Republic of China, the Russian Federation, the DPRK, and Cuba), and people sanctioned for serious corruption or human‑rights abuses. The rule would apply retroactively to pending visa, admission, and adjustment applications and to people already admitted or granted lawful status. The bill would require enhanced screening within 180 days, require visa revocation within 30 days after an inadmissibility finding, place affected aliens into removal proceedings with DHS priority for removal, and bar cancellation of removal, adjustment of status, and other discretionary relief except where the Act expressly allows it. DHS and State would have to report counts and explain any waivers starting one year after enactment and then every year.

Funding to enforce new immigration rules

If enacted, the bill would authorize appropriations of "such sums as may be necessary" to carry out the Act. The bill would not set dollar amounts or a schedule. Any money to implement screening, visa revocations, removals, and reporting would depend on later congressional appropriations.
