No Federal Funds for Immigrant ID Cards

This legal act aims to stop the use of federal money for an identification card program run by the immigration agency. This means the government will not be able to fund a program that would issue documents to individuals residing in the country without proper authorization. For citizens, this means their tax dollars will not be allocated to this specific purpose.
Key points
The act prohibits the use of federal funds for identification card programs for individuals residing in the U.S. without authorization.
This applies to the current Secure Docket Card Program and any similar initiatives by the Department of Homeland Security.
