What this bill would do
The "No Amnesty for Hamas Sympathizers Act" seeks to prohibit certain actions regarding aliens who lived in Palestinian-administered territories. It nullifies specific presidential and Secretary of Homeland Security notices regarding deferred enforced departure for certain Palestinians. The bill prohibits the use of funds for deferred enforced departure for those who resided in Judea and Samaria or Gaza, or hold Palestinian Authority travel documents. It also amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to restrict Temporary Protected Status, parole, asylum, and refugee status for these individuals. Additionally, it establishes new rules for inadmissibility and deportability.
