H.R. 5316: 

Safely Exacting Cautious Useful Rules for Immigration This Year (SECURITY) Act

Published:  Fri, Sep 5th 2014 @ 1:20 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Steve Stockman [R-TX36] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:

H.R. 5163: 

H.R. 5163

Published:  Mon, Jul 28th 2014 @ 9:54 am EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Bill Cassidy [R-LA6] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 5163 would focus on addressing the increased influx of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) on the Southwest border. First and foremost, it removes the distinction between UACs from contiguous and noncontiguous countries, then requires those who are screened and do not qualify are returned within 72 hours. Various improvements are made to the system for processing UACs, including a new requirement that they are to remain in Border Patrol custody until voluntary departure, removal, or granting of legal status.

H.R. 5143: 

Protection of Children Act of 2014

Published:  Mon, Aug 4th 2014 @ 3:19 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. John Carter [R-TX31] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 5143, the Protection of Children Act of 2014, would take excellent steps to resolve the surge of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) along the Southwest border. First, it removes the requirement that only UACs from contiguous countries receive expedited removal. In addition, children are no longer required to make their own independent decision to withdraw their applications for admission, and immigration officers who determine such children are inadmissible may withdraw their applications and return them to their home countries.

H.R. 5105: 

Report of Alien Children’s Safety Act of 2014

Published:  Fri, Sep 5th 2014 @ 1:07 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Lee Terry [R-NE2] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

To direct the Attorney General to report to Congress on the number of aliens unlawfully present in the United States who appear and fail to appear before immigration judges for proceedings under section 240 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, and for other purposes.

H.R. 3979: 

Carl Levin and Howard P. "Buck" McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015

Published:  Wed, May 6th 2015 @ 9:32 am EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Lou Barletta [R-PA11] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

No Position

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to ensure that emergency services volunteers are not taken into account as employees under the shared responsibility requirements contained in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

H.R. 3857: 

Enforce the Take Care Clause Act of 2014

Published:  Mon, Feb 24th 2014 @ 3:28 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Jim Gerlach [R-PA6] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 3857, the Enforce the Take Care Clause Act, would allow Congress to sue the Administration over a failure to enforce the law, or for other violations of the Constitution. This could increase interior enforcement of immigration laws if, for example, Congress were able to successful sue the Obama Administration for its DACA Executive Amnesty or for its failure to implement the entry-exit system.

H.R. 3611: 

DHS Immigration Accountability and Transparency Act of 2013

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 2:34 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Scott Perry [R-PA4] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 3611, the DHS Immigration Accountability and Transparency Act of 2013, would require the Secretary of DHS to submit a detailed annual report on immigration policy directives, covering matters ranging from previous removal statistics and the estimated number of aliens present without lawful status to the number of immigration cases closed due to immigration policy directives. In response to recent reports that the Administration is “cooking the books” on its removal numbers, detailed information is required regarding the methods by which the statistics were compiled.

H.R. 15: 

Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 11:59 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Joe Garcia [D-FL26] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

H.R. 15, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act, was a massive immigration reform bill, introduced by Rep. Joe Garcia (D-Fla.) and was the House companion to the Gang of 8's S. 744. H.R. 15 would result in approximately 30 million new permanent work permits issued in the first 10 years if passed. The bill would grant legal status and worker permits to an estimated 11 million illegal aliens with an opportunity for green cards after 10 years and replace some family-based immigration categories with a merit-based points system.

H.R. 3141: 

Biometric Exit Improvement Act of 2013

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 11:58 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Candice Miller [R-MI10] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

H.R. 3141, the Biometric Exit Improvement Act of 2013 would weaken border control by exempting non-pedestrian traffic from the entry-exit system. This would exempt an estimated 25% of all border crossings from the entry-exit system and create a loophole for would-be illegal aliens who would not be subject to the exit system and, thus, could potentially overstay in the U.S.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
