Syrian Refugee Verification and Safety Act

Published:  Thu, Feb 18th 2016 @ 8:43 am EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. David Vitter [R-LA] in the 114th congress

S. 2145: 

Middle East Refugee Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2016

Published:  Thu, Feb 18th 2016 @ 8:40 am EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Lindsey Graham [R-SC] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

S. 2145, the Middle East Refugee Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2016, would provide funding to increase the number of refugees resettled in the United States each year from an average of 70,000 to 100,000 per year.

S. 1889: 

REBUILD Act

Published:  Thu, Oct 13th 2016 @ 11:14 am EDT

Sponsored by:  Sen. Barbara Mikulski [D-MD] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

S. 1899, the REBUILD Act, would allow refugee applicants to receive a work permit while they're waiting for their case to be decided. This legislation would likely increase the level fraud in a program that's already riddled with fraud.

Repeal Executive Amnesty Act of 2015

Published:  Thu, Oct 13th 2016 @ 12:08 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Sen. Ron Johnson [R-WI] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

S. 129, the Repeal Executive Amnesty Act of 2015, would: 1) Prohibit the President's use of granting parole to illegal aliens; 2) Prohibit the Administration from granting work permits to all illegal aliens; 3) Defund all executive actions on immigration, including all memos issued by the Department of Homeland Security; 4) Close the loophole that played a large role in last summer's border surge by treating illegal aliens from non-contiguous countries the same as contiguous countries, making them easier to remove; 5) Prohibit illegal aliens from accessing Social Security, medicare, and benefits from the Affordable Care Act; 6) Reinstate the Secure Communities program; 7) Restrict federal funding to municipalities that provide sanctuary to illegal aliens; 8) Prohibit the government from providing legal council to illegal aliens in removal proceedings; and 9) Restrict the Administration's ability to grant and extend Temporary Protected Status to illegal aliens. The bill would also increase pay for ICE agents.

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.”
