H.R. 3573: 

Refugee Resettlement Oversight and Security Act of 2015

Published:  Tue, Feb 16th 2016 @ 2:29 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Michael McCaul [R-TX10] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 3573, the Refugee Resettlement Oversight and Security Act of 2015, would require Congress to pass a joint resolution each year approving the number of refugees resettled in the United States each year. This would likely reduce the resettlement of refugees into the United States by requiring greater Congressional oversight.

H.R. 3314: 

Resettlement Accountability National Security Act of 2015

Published:  Wed, Aug 26th 2015 @ 8:14 pm EDT

Sponsored by:  Rep. Brian Babin [R-TX36] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 3314, the Resettlement Accountability National Security Act of 2015, would immediately suspend all refugee resettlement until the Government Accountability Office can assess its costs to state and local municipalities and potential national security threats.

H.R. 1153: 

Asylum Reform and Border Protection Act of 2015

Published:  Tue, Mar 3rd 2015 @ 10:04 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Jason Chaffetz [R-UT3] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 1153, the Asylum Reform and Border Protection Act of 2015, represents one of the most thorough responses to the surge of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) at the Southwest border. Aside from repealing the requirements that resulted in UACs from contiguous countries receiving differing treatment than those from noncontiguous countries, this bill requires immigration officers to order all illegal entrants removed upon screening, absent an asylum claim. In order to encourage cooperation with return, foreign countries who resist repatriation will face cuts to foreign assistance.

H.R. 1149: 

Protection of Children Act of 2015

Published:  Tue, Mar 3rd 2015 @ 10:05 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. John Carter [R-TX31] in the 114th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 1149, the Protection of Children Act of 2015, would remove 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. The transfer time of UACs to HHS is extended to allow for review, and various improvements are made to the SIJ visa and asylum programs.

S. 129: 

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.

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.

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.

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.”
