What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "End DED Act," aims to prohibit the use of federal funds for the Deferred Enforced Departure Program. It seeks to stop any federal funds, resources, or fees from being used to implement or administer this program or any successor program. The legislation targets the authority of the President, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Attorney General, and the Secretary of State regarding this matter. Congress asserts that the program lacks a statutory basis in the Immigration and Nationality Act. The bill intends to reassert Congressional authority over immigration matters.
