What this bill would do

The "National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants Act," or "NO BAN Act," aims to transfer and limit Executive Branch authority to restrict the entry of certain classes of aliens. It expands non-discrimination provisions to include religion and covers nonimmigrant visas and immigration benefits. The bill places strict limitations on the President's ability to suspend or restrict entry, requiring such actions to be narrowly tailored to address a compelling government interest. It mandates specific congressional notification and reporting requirements to ensure transparency. Additionally, the act establishes judicial review for individuals harmed by these actions. Finally, it requires specific reports regarding previous presidential proclamations and any new restrictions.
