Summary of Bill HR 6621
Bill 117 HR 6621, also known as the No Taxpayer Funds for Illegal Immigrants Act, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to prohibit the use of federal funds to provide any assistance or benefits to individuals who are in the United States illegally.
If passed, this bill would prevent federal agencies from using taxpayer money to provide housing, healthcare, education, or any other form of assistance to undocumented immigrants. The bill also includes provisions to ensure that federal funds are not used to support sanctuary cities or any other localities that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement efforts.
Supporters of the No Taxpayer Funds for Illegal Immigrants Act argue that it is necessary to ensure that taxpayer money is not being used to support individuals who are in the country illegally. They believe that providing benefits to undocumented immigrants only encourages more illegal immigration and puts a strain on government resources. Opponents of the bill, however, argue that it is inhumane to deny basic assistance to individuals who may be in need, regardless of their immigration status. They also argue that the bill could have unintended consequences, such as making it more difficult for undocumented immigrants to access necessary services, which could ultimately harm public health and safety. Overall, the No Taxpayer Funds for Illegal Immigrants Act is a controversial piece of legislation that raises important questions about the role of government in providing assistance to undocumented immigrants. It remains to be seen whether this bill will ultimately be passed into law.
