HR6225 — PAUSE Act of 2025

This bill would create a nationwide pause on issuing visas and providing immigration status until a set of conditions in the immigration system are met. It would also restrict who can claim birthright citizenship and bar many federal benefits for certain noncitizens. - Families and children: Would restrict birthright citizenship to a child born in the United States only if at least one parent is a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident. It would also allow state and local governments to deny access to public schools for people present without lawful status. - Nonimmigrants and pending applicants: Would prevent nonimmigrants from adjusting to lawful permanent resident status and pause new visas or status grants. It would revoke applications filed before enactment if the new rules make the applicant ineligible and refund any fee paid. - People screened by ideology or affiliation: Would bar lawful status for people described as Islamists or observers of Sharia law, members or associates of the Chinese Communist Party, known or suspected terrorists, or people affiliated with foreign terrorist organizations. - Low-income immigrants and borrowers: Would deny many federal benefits and supports to aliens, including Medicare and Medicaid emergency medical care in certain cases, Supplemental Security Income, SNAP, WIC, premium tax credits, the Earned Income Tax Credit, federal student loans, HUD housing assistance, and Small Business Administration loans or guarantees.

HR22 — SAVE Act

Requires documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in Federal elections. The bill would add verification, recordkeeping, and new penalties while creating a sworn-affidavit and official‑verification path for people who cannot present documents. - Voters without documents: People who lack documentary proof would rely on a standardized sworn affidavit or an official verification process the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) must develop. Provisional ballots could still be cast and counted if citizenship is later verified. - State agencies and DMVs: Motor vehicle agencies and other voter registration points would be required to collect and record citizenship documents and to notify applicants in advance. The Federal mail registration form would be revised and the EAC must issue guidance within 10 days of enactment. - Removal and enforcement: States could use Department of Homeland Security Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (DHS SAVE), the Social Security Administration (SSA) verification service, and state ID data to identify and remove noncitizens. The bill expands private suits and increases criminal penalties for knowingly registering or assisting noncitizens.

HR116 — Stopping Border Surges Act

Tightens asylum eligibility and overhauls rules for unaccompanied children and family detention. The bill would narrow who can get asylum, shorten filing windows, mandate recordings and checklists for credible-fear and expedited-removal interviews, and expand DHS authority over detention and adjudication. - Children and families: Requires specialized interviews for unaccompanied alien children and provides access to counsel at no expense to the Government. It would impose a 14-day hearing timeline for qualifying cases, require certain placement and caretaker contact information be disclosed, and mandate that specified child information be given to DHS within 90 days of enactment. It also narrows Special Immigrant Juvenile Status eligibility and clarifies that non-UAC minors may be detained only to a parent or legal guardian lawfully present. - Asylum applicants and process: Lowers the asylum filing deadline from 1 year to 6 months. It would anchor credible-fear screenings to asylum eligibility rules, require audio or audiovisual recordings and competent interpreters, and change work-authorization timing from 180 days to 1 year with any issued employment authorization expiring 6 months after issuance. It also allows asylum termination if an asylee returns to their home country subject to a waiver for compelling reasons. - Enforcement, fraud, and adjudication: Expands safe-third-country and internal-relocation bars, requires consideration of investigative work product in credibility determinations, and reallocates some asylum adjudicatory authority between DHS and the Attorney General. It adds a criminal penalty of up to 10 years for knowingly fraudulent asylum statements and creates a discovery-based 10-year statute of limitations for certain immigration fraud offenses.

HR925 — Dismantle DEI Act of 2025

Bans many federal Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) practices across the federal government. The bill would define a narrow set of "prohibited DEI practices," require agencies to end DEI offices and related programs, and block similar DEI requirements for contractors, grantees, accrediting bodies, and parts of the military and financial regulators.

HRES888 — Censuring and condemning Delegate Stacey Plaskett and removing her from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence for conduct that reflects discreditably on the House of Representatives for colluding with convicted felony sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a congressional hearing.

Formal censure and committee removal. This resolution would formally censure Delegate Stacey Plaskett and remove her from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence over allegations she coordinated with Jeffrey Epstein during a February 2019 hearing. - For Delegate Stacey Plaskett: Would issue a formal condemnation and strip her of her seat on the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. - For congressional oversight and public trust: Frames alleged real‑time coordination with a convicted sex offender as damaging to the House's reputation and raising questions about her judgment. - For the House Committee on Ethics: Directs a full investigation into the extent of Plaskett's ties to Epstein and any potential improprieties.

HR2705 — Nuclear Family Priority Act

Refocuses family-based immigration to prioritize spouses and children. The bill would narrow who counts as an immediate relative, rewrite family-sponsored categories, change annual visa limits and country allocation rules, and create a limited parent visa. - Families and sponsors: Would redefine "immediate relatives" to include only spouses and children of U.S. citizens or permanent residents and would limit family-preference visas to spouses and children of lawful permanent residents. It also changes age rules so some younger applicants can be adjudicated as children for visa purposes. - Parents of adult U.S. citizens: Would create a new W nonimmigrant visa for parents of U.S. citizens aged 21 or older. Admissions would be up to 5 years, with no work authorization, no eligibility for public benefits, and the U.S. citizen child must arrange health insurance at no cost to the parent. - Visa supply and country caps: Would set the annual family-sponsored level at 88,000 minus a computed adjustment and restructure per-country limits so 75% of family visas are issued without country caps and the remainder are allocated under country ceilings.
