What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Domestic Jobs Protection Act," aims to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act. The primary purpose of the legislation is to modify the current definition of an unauthorized alien. Specifically, it seeks to strike the phrase "or by the Attorney General" from Section 274A(h)(3). This change would alter how an unauthorized alien is defined under existing law.
