H.R. 3647, the Fairness for Families Act of 2015, would exempt adult children of U.S. citizens who have certain disabilities from the annual caps.
H.R. 3605, the Protect Family Values at the Border Act, would require Border Patrol to consider the safety and family concerns in any action related to the repatriation or prosecution of individuals apprehended for immigration violations and provide related training for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and cooperating entity personnel. These requirements would prevent the timely removal of certain illegal border crossers allowing them to safely resettle in the United States.
H.R.3566 would prevent illegal aliens from receiving in-state tuition. The bill specifically excludes individuals who are not legally present in the United States from receiving in-state tuition. The bill also provides U.S. citizens and legal immigrants standing in a court of law to challenge an institution of higher learning that extends in-state tuition to illegal aliens.
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. 3436 would provide discretionary authority to immigration judges in the case of an illegal alien subject to removal, deportation, or exclusion and who is the parent of a U.S. citizen child if the judge determines that action to be against the child's best interests.
H.R. 3437, the Protecting American Lives Act, would block SCAAP funding and other law enforcement grants to local jurisdictions that pass ordinances or otherwise prevent local officials from cooperating the federal immigration agents.
To sunset the authority exercised by the Secretary of Homeland Security through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, and for other purposes.
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. 3370, the EB-JOBS Act of 2015, would issue a green card to any foreign citizen who has held an E-2 visa for the last 10 years while also increasing other investor-based visa programs. We estimate that this legislation would add 3.4 million green cards over 10 years.
To support the integration of immigrants to the United States into the economic, social, cultural, and civic life of their local communities and the Nation, and for other purposes.
