Bill > S2350

This bill, known as the "Protect DREAMer Confidentiality Act of 2025," establishes strong protections for information submitted by individuals participating in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. The bill defines DACA as the existing program that provides temporary legal status to certain individuals who were brought to the United States as children, and it mandates that the Secretary of Homeland Security keep all individual application information confidential. Specifically, the bill prohibits sharing DACA applicants' personal information with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or any state, local, or tribal law enforcement agencies, except in very limited circumstances. These exceptions include preventing fraudulent claims, addressing specific national security concerns, or investigating felonies unrelated to immigration status. Additionally, the bill forbids the Secretary from referring DACA participants to any law enforcement agency for deportation or other enforcement actions. The legislation aims to protect vulnerable immigrants who were brought to the United States as children by ensuring their personal information cannot be used against them for immigration enforcement purposes.
