What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "No Censors on our Shores Act of 2025," targets foreign government officials. It seeks to make certain individuals inadmissible to the United States or subject to deportation. This applies to any alien who served as a foreign government official and was responsible for or directly carried out acts against a U.S. citizen located in the U.S. These acts must be ones that would violate the First Amendment if committed by a U.S. government official. The legislation amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to include these provisions.
