What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "One Nation, One Visa Policy Act," aims to restrict how nationals of the People's Republic of China enter the United States. It directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to prohibit the admission of any national of the People's Republic of China or anyone holding a passport issued by that country without a valid visa. Additionally, it prohibits the use of funds to allow these individuals to participate in the Guam and Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Visa Waiver Program. The definition of the People's Republic of China under this act specifically includes the Special Administrative Units of Hong Kong and Macau.
