GAZA Act

Bill 119 s 1159, also known as the "Palestinian Authority Passport Ineligibility Act," is a proposed piece of legislation in the United States Congress. The bill aims to prevent aliens who hold a passport issued by the Palestinian Authority from being eligible for visas, admission, or parole into the United States.

If passed, this bill would effectively bar individuals who possess a Palestinian Authority passport from entering the United States for any reason. This restriction would apply to both immigrant and non-immigrant visas, as well as any other forms of entry or temporary stay in the country.

The rationale behind this bill is likely rooted in concerns over national security and diplomatic relations with the Palestinian Authority. Supporters of the bill may argue that individuals holding Palestinian Authority passports pose a potential threat to the United States, and therefore should be prohibited from entering the country. Opponents of the bill, on the other hand, may argue that such a blanket ban on individuals based solely on their passport is discriminatory and unjust. They may also raise concerns about the impact this legislation could have on diplomatic relations between the United States and the Palestinian Authority. Overall, Bill 119 s 1159 is a controversial piece of legislation that raises important questions about national security, immigration policy, and diplomatic relations. It remains to be seen how this bill will progress through the legislative process and what its ultimate impact will be if it becomes law.
