HR 1668 United States House · 119th Congress

End FEMA Benefits for Illegal Immigrants Act

HR 1668 prohibits the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) from using funds to support sheltering programs or facility improvements for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) short-term holding facilities. It specifically cancels unused funds from two 2023 and 2024 appropriations acts that were previously allocated to FEMA for this purpose. The bill directly affects FEMA's budget authority and prevents the agency from funding non-Federal entities providing such support. This is a procedural funding change, not a new immigration policy.
