H.R. 5014: 

Illegal Entry Accountability Act of 2014

Published:  Thu, Jan 15th 2015 @ 12:52 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Randy Weber [R-TX14] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 5014, the Illegal Entry Accountability Act, would hold Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador accountable for illegal immigration by immediately suspending all U.S. foreign aid to these countries until Congress determines sufficient action is taken to mitigate unlawful U.S.-Mexico border crossings by their respective citizens. This is one of the few bills targeting the surge in illegal aliens.

H.R. 4882: 

Southwest Border Protection Act of 2014

Published:  Thu, Jan 15th 2015 @ 12:51 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. David Schweikert [R-AZ6] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 4882, the Southwest Border Protection Act of 2014, would direct the National Guard to secure the U.S. - Mexico border. Because many of the illegal aliens crossing the border as part of the 2014 border surge will likely receive green cards, this bill would help reduce the overall increase that is expected as a result of surge. Furthermore, it is is just about the only legislative response being offered to address the surge and slow/stop the flow.

H.R. 2220: 

SMART Act of 2013

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 2:40 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Ted Poe [R-TX2] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2220, the SMART Act of 2013, would make efforts to achieve border security along the international border with Mexico. First, the bill requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to achieve and maintain operational control of only the Southwest border, which is defined as a 90% probability that all illegal border crossers are apprehended and narcotics and other contraband are seized.

H.R. 2124: 

Keeping the Promise of IRCA Act

Published:  Tue, Dec 31st 2013 @ 9:07 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. John Barrow [D-GA12] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2124, the Keeping the Promise of IRCA Act, does everything possible to keep the promises of internal enforcement made in the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA). First and foremost, it establishes mandatory E-Verify for all future hires, effectively eliminating the jobs magnet. Penalties are increased for fraud and smuggling, and so-called "sanctuary cities" lose all State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) funding.

H.R. 830: 

SAVE Act of 2013

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 2:22 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Sam Graves [R-MO6] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 830, the Secure America Through Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act of 2013 would help reduce illegal immigration by broadening and enhancing border security and interior enforcement measures. Perhaps the most important aspect of the SAVE Act is its requirement that ALL employers use the E-Verify electronic workplace verification program, an inexpensive, quick, and accurate way to verify the employment eligibility of ALL employees. This would go a long way toward removing the job magnet for illegal immigration.

H.R. 72: 

Border Security, Cooperation, and Act Now Drug War Prevention Act of 2013

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 2:24 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee [D-TX18] in the 113th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 72, the Border Security, Cooperation, and Act Now Drug War Prevention Act of 2013 would allow for emergency deployments of U.S. Border Patrol agents, DEA agents, and ATF agents in states that declare an "international border security emergency." Improvements to border security are also proposed, including new equipment, technology, and vehicles for agents, in order to prevent various forms of crime including crossing into the United States at any location other than an authorized port of entry.

H.R. 2000: 

SAVE Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:14 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Heath Shuler [D-NC11, 2007-2013] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2000, SAVE Act of 2011, would help reduce illegal immigration by requiring every employer in the United States to eventually use the E-Verify electronic employment eligibility verification system to verify that every employee has the legal right to work in the United States. As well, H.R. 4088 contains other interior enforcement measures such as increasing the number of ICE agents and training at least 250 State and local law enforcement officers on how to perform federal immigration enforcement procedures.

H.R. 1922: 

H.R. 1922

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:10 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Ben Quayle [R-AZ3, 2011-2013] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 1922 would allow U.S. Customs and Border Protection to access federal lands, including National Wilderness Preservation land, to carry out security activities.

H.R. 1921: 

Build the Fence Now Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:56 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Mike Pompeo [R-KS4] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 1921, Build the Fence Now Act of 2011, would require DHS to construct two layers of reinforced fencing along the entire international land border between the United States and Mexico.

H.R. 1274: 

Keeping the Pledge on Immigration Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:00 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Edward “Ed” Royce [R-CA39] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R.1274, the Keeping the Pledge on Immigration Act, would: provide up to 4,000 additional national guard troops patrolling the southern border; reaffirm language mandating "operational control" of the border as defined in the 2006 Secure Fence Act; provide double and even triple layer fencing by September 30, 2014; organize rapid deployment unites to respond to UAE and radar detection alerts; complete of the automated exit control system by September 30, 2015; and provide additional visa security screening for high risk visas including in-person interviews and data sharing.

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.”
