AI Summary
This bill amends Section 212(a)(3)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act to expand the categories of individuals who are considered ineligible for admission to the United States. Specifically, the bill would prohibit entry for officers, officials, representatives, spokespersons, and members of terrorist organizations including Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda, Palestine Islamic Jihad, and ISIS, as well as individuals who endorse or support terrorist activities conducted by these groups. The legislation builds upon existing immigration law provisions that restrict entry for those involved in terrorist activities, and broadens the scope of who can be deemed inadmissible by explicitly naming these specific terrorist organizations and including those who verbally endorse their terrorist activities. The bill aims to strengthen national security by creating a more comprehensive legal framework for preventing individuals associated with these designated terrorist groups from entering the United States.
