State Border Security Reimbursement Act of 2025

This bill requires the federal government to reimburse eligible states for their border security expenses.

To be eligible, a state must have expended more than $2.5 billion on border security and enforcement in the 10 years before this bill's enactment. If such a state provides by a certain deadline an accounting of all of its nonfederally funded border security expenses, the federal government must reimburse the full amount.

Bill 119 HR 424, also known as the "Reimbursement for Border Security Expenses Act," aims to provide financial assistance to states for expenses related to border security. The bill does not specify which states will receive reimbursement or how much funding will be allocated.

The primary purpose of the bill is to address the costs incurred by states in securing their borders, particularly in response to increased immigration and border enforcement efforts. The bill also includes provisions for other purposes, although these are not clearly outlined in the text.

Overall, Bill 119 HR 424 seeks to support states in their efforts to enhance border security and manage the challenges associated with immigration and border enforcement. The bill does not contain any partisan language or specific policy proposals, making it a neutral and non-controversial piece of legislation.
