Protect America Act

The bill, "A bill to condition certain Federal funds for States and local governments on cooperation with Federal immigration enforcement authorities," introduced in the 119th Congress as S. 3790 on February 5, 2026, aims to deter illegal entry and reentry into the United States. It proposes increasing criminal penalties for crimes committed after illegal reentry, protecting Federal officers and employees from disruptions caused by loud noises, and excluding organizations that promote, incite, or support criminal violence from tax benefits under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
