Congressional Employment for DACA, DED, and TPS Beneficiaries

This bill aims to allow individuals with DACA, DED, or TPS status to apply for employment in the U.S. Congress under the same conditions as U.S. citizens. This means these individuals will have equal opportunities for employment in legislative bodies, potentially opening new career paths for thousands of program beneficiaries.
Key points
Individuals with deferred action (DACA, DED) and temporary protected status (TPS) will be treated like U.S. citizens for Congressional employment.
The bill opens doors for individuals who previously might have had limited public sector employment opportunities.
The changes will take effect starting from fiscal year 2024.
