Reforms to Immigration Status and Parole Rules

This bill introduces significant changes to Temporary Protected Status (TPS) rules, restricts special immigrant juvenile status, and alters immigration parole regulations. It aims to tighten immigration laws and limit the ability of certain foreign nationals to remain in the U.S., impacting their rights and obligations.
Key points
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation will require an Act of Congress, not just administrative decisions, with a maximum 12-month period.
Changes to unaccompanied alien children rules – facilitating quicker repatriation and limiting access to special immigrant status.
Stricter immigration parole rules – limiting parole to specific urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit, with an annual cap of 1,000 individuals.
Repeal of cancellation of removal and adjustment of status for certain foreign nationals, potentially leading to more deportations.
Prohibition of certain identification documents (e.g., CBP One app, Notices to Appear) at airport security checkpoints, potentially affecting travel for some individuals.
