Bill Analysis
Bill Summary: HRES 1112 (118th Congress)
HRES 1112 is a resolution that formally denounces the immigration policies implemented by the Biden administration. The resolution articulates the House of Representatives’ disapproval of these policies, which the sponsors argue have led to increased illegal immigration and border security challenges. The resolution does not propose new legislation or amendments to existing laws; rather, it serves as a statement of the House’s position regarding the current administration’s approach to immigration.
The resolution highlights specific concerns, including perceived failures in enforcing existing immigration laws and the impact of policies that the sponsors claim have encouraged unlawful entry into the United States. It calls for a return to stricter immigration enforcement measures and expresses support for policies that prioritize border security and the rule of law.
Funding and authorities are not directly addressed in HRES 1112, as it is a resolution and does not allocate funds or create new programs. However, it may influence future appropriations and legislative actions related to immigration enforcement by signaling the House’s stance to relevant agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The primary beneficiaries of the resolution’s proposed changes would be those advocating for stricter immigration controls, including certain law enforcement agencies and border security advocates. Conversely, it may have regulatory implications for immigrant communities and those seeking asylum, as it emphasizes enforcement over humanitarian considerations.
The latest action on HRES 1112 involved a motion to reconsider, which was laid on the table and agreed to without objection, indicating a lack of further debate or contention on the resolution within the House. This procedural step suggests that the resolution is unlikely to be revisited or amended in the near future.
