H.R. 5851: 

Refugee Protection Act of 2016

Published:  Mon, Oct 31st 2016 @ 1:47 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Zoe Lofgren [D-CA19] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:

H.R. 5851, the Refugee Protection Act, would make dramatic reforms to the Refugee program making it much easier for foreign nationals to come to the United States and claim refugee status. The bill virtually allows anyone who can make it to the United States to be approved for asylum process -- a number that could potentially affect more than 10 million people.

Save America Comprehensive Immigration Act of 2015

Published:  Mon, May 11th 2015 @ 10:18 am EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee [D-TX18] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

H.R.52, the Save America Comprehensive Immigration Act of 2015, would grant amnesty to 11 million illegal alien living in the United States. The legislation would also double the caps in chain migration categories, double the visa lottery, grant amnesty to foreign citizens who currently have Temporary Protected Status, and repeal any bans on funding for sanctuary cities. The legislation does include some improvements to border security.

H.R. 5114: 

Helping Unaccompanied Minors and Alleviating National Emergency (HUMANE) Act

Published:  Mon, Jul 28th 2014 @ 9:45 am EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Henry Cuellar [D-TX28] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

H.R. 5114, the Helping Unaccompanied Minors and Alleviating National Emergency (HUMANE) Act, would address the surge of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) on the Southwest border, but would actually make the situation much worse. Though the distinction between UACs from Mexico and other countries is removed, it exposes all of them to a complicated process which would further delay returning the children to their countries of origin.

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.”
