Blocks immigration benefits for those involved in October 7, 2023 attacks against Israel.
This bill would make people who took part in the October 7, 2023 attacks against Israel unable to enter the U.S. It would also block them from getting any immigration benefits, like asylum. This changes current law by specifically targeting those involved in these attacks and naming Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
Today, U.S. immigration law prevents people linked to certain terrorist groups from entering the country, but it does not specifically name Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad in all relevant sections. This bill would explicitly name these groups and would make anyone who participated in the October 7, 2023, attacks against Israel inadmissible to the U.S. and ineligible for any immigration relief, including asylum.
