Ban on Taxpayer Funding for Identity Cards for Illegal Immigrants

This bill prohibits the use of federal taxpayer funds to establish or support programs, such as the ICE Secure Docket Card, that issue free identity cards to individuals unlawfully present in the United States. Furthermore, documentation issued during immigration proceedings cannot be used as proof of identity to establish eligibility for federal public benefits. This aims to limit government spending on these specific programs and reinforce benefit eligibility rules.
Key points
Stops the use of taxpayer money for programs issuing free identity cards to individuals without legal immigration status.
Documentation related to immigration proceedings cannot be used to prove eligibility for federal public benefits.
Requires a report detailing the costs and operation of any existing or similar identity card programs.
