What this bill would do

The ``Preventing the Abuse of Immigration Parole Act'' aims to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to reform the parole process. The bill seeks to ensure that parole is only granted on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit. It restricts the Secretary of Homeland Security from paroling any alien who is a national of a country of concern without a waiver from the Secretary of State. Additionally, the bill imposes a cap of 3,000 total aliens granted parole per fiscal year starting in 2029. Finally, it provides legal standing for State attorneys general or authorized officers to sue the Secretary of Homeland Security if parole limitations are violated.
