HCR 37 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Condemns abuses by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, affirms the constitutional and human rights of all people within the United States, and recognizes the essential social and economic contributions of migrants to the nation

HCR 37 is a symbolic resolution condemning U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) practices it claims include unlawful detentions, racial profiling, and family separations. It affirms that all people in the U.S. - regardless of immigration status - have constitutional rights and recognizes migrants' vital economic contributions, including in agriculture, healthcare, and other key sectors. The resolution does not change laws but directs Missouri’s Congressional delegation and an ICE official to receive a copy of this non-binding statement. It addresses concerns that ICE actions have caused harm, discouraged community engagement, and violated due process protections.
