This bill would change who automatically becomes a U.S. citizen when born in the country. A baby born in the U.S. would only be a citizen if one parent is a U.S. citizen or a legal permanent resident. This change would not affect anyone born before the bill becomes law.

This bill would restart and continue special programs. These programs help disabled Americans try working without losing their Social Security disability benefits. They ended in 2022 but would now run until 2030. This would give more people a chance to work and make sure their total income is protected.

This bill would formally reaffirm the Declaration of Independence as a foundational law of the United States. It would explicitly re-adopt the Declaration as an enduring charter of American independence and rights, affecting all citizens by reinforcing these core principles. The bill would also include the full text of the Declaration within the law itself, marking the 250th anniversary of American independence.

This bill would stop federal money from going to states and local governments that do not cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. It would also increase penalties for illegal entry and reentry. Additionally, it would make it harder for foreign students to get visas if their schools are in non-cooperating areas, increase penalties for interfering with federal officers, and remove tax benefits from non-profit groups that support criminal violence.
