HRES 1486: Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

H.R. 1486 is a resolution introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach President Donald Trump for high crimes and misdemeanors. The bill alleges that the President violated his constitutional oath by transforming federal immigration agencies into unaccountable paramilitary forces that commit unjustified killings, cover up misconduct, and terrorize communities. Key provisions cite specific incidents involving the deaths of civilians and the obstruction of state and local investigations as evidence of these abuses. If passed, the resolution would formally exhibit articles of impeachment to the Senate for a subsequent trial.

HRES 1434: Supporting the efforts of the Trump Administration to obtain a rehearing of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in Trump v. Barbara, and for other purposes.

This House resolution expresses support for the Trump Administration's effort to seek a rehearing of the Supreme Court's decision in *Trump v. Barbara*, which ruled that children born in the United States to parents who are unlawfully or temporarily present are citizens at birth. The bill urges the Solicitor General to file a petition for rehearing and calls on the House Judiciary Committee to monitor the case for potential legislative or oversight action. It cites concerns about commercial "birth tourism" schemes exploiting the ruling as a reason to revisit the decision before it becomes final law.

S 4983: Harry Reid Immigration Stabilization Act

This bill, the Harry Reid Immigration Stabilization Act, establishes a comprehensive framework to reduce overall immigration numbers, reform asylum procedures, increase penalties for criminal behavior, and enhance border security measures. It directly affects immigrants, refugees, asylum seekers, employers, and law enforcement agencies by setting strict caps on family and employment-based visas, requiring a 30-day filing deadline for asylum applications, and expanding the definition of aggravated felonies to include a wider range of crimes. Key mechanisms include mandating that employers verify work eligibility through a telephone verification system, creating a new border crossing fee, and requiring states to verify immigration status to receive certain federal benefits. Additionally, the legislation introduces stricter rules for criminal aliens facing expedited deportation, increases penalties for alien smuggling, and clarifies citizenship requirements for children born to non-citizen parents.

HR 9824: Daycare Not Detentions Act of 2026

The Daycare Not Detentions Act of 2026 provides additional funding to the Department of Health and Human Services to support child care programs, including the Child Care and Development Block Grant, Head Start, and preschool development grants. These funds are intended to help states and organizations cover necessary expenses for these programs through fiscal year 2029. The bill also rescinds $70 billion in previously allocated money for U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that has not yet been spent. Overall, the legislation redirects federal resources toward early childhood education and care rather than immigration enforcement activities.

HB 6208: Law enforcement: employment; certain federal employees licensed as certain law enforcement officers; prohibit. Amends sec. 9e of 1965 PA 203 (MCL 28.609e).

This bill prohibits federal immigration and border security employees from obtaining Michigan law enforcement licenses between September 1, 2025, and January 20, 2029. It also mandates that all individuals seeking or holding specific law enforcement licenses complete active violence response training focused on coordinated tactical responses to mass casualty incidents. The Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards is tasked with creating the rules to define these training requirements.

HB 6211: Corrections: jails; certain federal employees certified or recertified as local corrections officers; prohibit. Amends sec. 13 of 2003 PA 125 (MCL 791.543).

This bill prohibits the certification or recertification of certain individuals as local corrections officers in Michigan if they have worked for specific federal immigration agencies between September 1, 2025, and January 20, 2029. The law directly affects people seeking to become local corrections officers on or after January 1, 2005, by adding a new requirement that they must not have been employed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services during that three-year window. While the bill maintains existing requirements for U.S. citizenship, age, and high school education, it introduces this specific employment restriction to prevent federal immigration workers from transitioning into local correction roles.

This bill prohibits Michigan school districts, academies, and intermediate districts from hiring or retaining individuals who worked for specific federal immigration agencies between September 1, 2025, and January 20, 2029. The affected agencies include Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Customs and Border Protection, and Citizenship and Immigration Services.

HR 9773: Permanent Trump Secure Border Act

This bill, known as the Permanent Trump Secure Border Act, introduces significant changes to U.S. immigration law affecting asylum seekers, border security, and family detention policies. It tightens asylum eligibility by establishing a "safe third country" rule that bars individuals who transited through other nations without seeking protection there, while simultaneously expanding the list of criminal convictions that disqualify applicants from asylum. The legislation also restricts employment authorization for asylum seekers, limits the use of parole for humanitarian reasons, and mandates the return of land border arrivals to contiguous foreign territories when detention capacity is unavailable. Additionally, the bill clarifies standards for family detention, expands penalties for visa overstays, and modifies protections for unaccompanied children by requiring faster hearings and limiting special immigrant status for those unable to reunite with parents.

HR 9739: Mount Cristo Rey Protection Act

The Mount Cristo Rey Protection Act prohibits the use of federal funds to seize land around Mount Cristo Rey in Sunland Park, New Mexico, for border wall construction. This legislation specifically blocks funding for legal actions related to eminent domain and bans the installation of security measures such as roads, fencing, and surveillance equipment near the site. The bill aims to protect the mountain, which holds deep religious significance for over 40,000 annual pilgrims, from federal government interference. By restricting financial resources for these specific projects, the act ensures that the holy site remains free from the proposed border wall and associated security infrastructure.

S 4954: Citizenship Act of 2026

The Citizenship Act of 2026 redefines the legal status of individuals currently in the United States without legal admission as "invaders" and removes birthright citizenship from children born to these individuals. This change specifically targets mothers who are unlawfully present in the country or entered for the purpose of giving birth, as well as foreign nationals involved in commercial surrogacy contracts within the U.S. By amending the Immigration and Nationality Act, the bill ensures that citizenship is no longer automatically granted to these specific groups of children, regardless of their place of birth. Additionally, the legislation declares that courts cannot review the government's determination that an invasion is occurring at the border.
