AI Summary

This bill, the "No Asylum for CCP Spies Act," amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to deny asylum to members of a Communist or other totalitarian party, with some exceptions. The bill allows an alien who is a member or affiliate of a Communist or totalitarian party to be granted asylum if they publicly renounce their membership, show their membership was involuntary or limited, and are determined not to be a security risk. The Attorney General or Secretary of Homeland Security may also waive the party membership bar if the alien has significant national security information, provided they publicly renounce their party membership and are determined not to be a security risk.
