Bill to prevent the president from banning entry to the United States based on nationality, religion, or immigration status.
The problem
Concerns that executive orders restricting travel or immigration based on nationality, religion, or status may violate constitutional rights and international agreements.
The proposal
Prohibits the president from issuing proclamations or orders that ban entry based on nationality, religion, or immigration classification without congressional approval.
The impact
Affects immigration policy decisions, travel restrictions, and the balance of power between the president and Congress in national security matters.
Prevents restrictions based on religion or national origin, which supporters argue violates First Amendment protections and equal protection principles. Ensures immigration decisions follow constitutional safeguards.
Requires Congress to approve any entry bans, strengthening checks and balances. Ensures major immigration decisions involve elected representatives from all states.
Reduces uncertainty for travelers, businesses, and immigrants if restrictions require legislative debate. Makes policy changes more transparent and debated publicly.
May improve relationships with countries and groups that felt targeted by previous travel restrictions. Demonstrates commitment to non-discrimination principles.
Requiring congressional approval delays executive action during urgent security threats. May slow response to emerging public health or terrorism risks requiring immediate travel restrictions.
Congress may struggle to agree on immigration restrictions, leaving no policy in place. Partisan division could prevent needed security measures from passing.
Presidents lose ability to respond quickly to international crises or security threats. Diplomatic situations may require rapid, confidential decisions that public congressional debate prevents.
Bill's language may be unclear about what constitutes a ban based on 'religion' or 'nationality,' leading to legal challenges and court disputes.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
