H.R. 29, the Separation of Powers Act of 2015, would block funding for the issuance of green cards to any illegal aliens unless the alien's case is reviewed on an individual basis and it's for urgent humanitarian reasons.

H.R. 31, the Prevention of Executive Amnesty Act of 2015, would block funding for Pres. Obama's executive DAPA amnesty announced in Nov. 2014. This amnesty would result in work permits for approximately 5 million illegal aliens who are parents of U.S. citizens.
H.R. 32, the Defense of Legal Workers Act of 2015, would block funding for Pres. Obama's executive DAPA amnesty announced in Nov. 2014 and renewals for his 2012 DACA amnesty. This amnesty would result in work permits for approximately 7.1 million illegal aliens who are parents of U.S. citizens or meet other requirements.
