Bill > S3237

This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to expand the definition of individuals who are considered to be engaged in terrorist activity and therefore inadmissible to the United States. Specifically, the bill adds officers, officials, representatives, spokespersons, and members of several terrorist organizations—including Hamas, Palestine Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS—to the existing list of individuals who can be denied entry into the country. Moreover, the bill goes beyond just organizational membership by also making individuals who endorse or espouse terrorist activities conducted by these groups inadmissible. This means that not only active members of these specified terrorist organizations would be barred from entering the United States, but also individuals who publicly support or verbally express support for terrorist activities carried out by these groups. The amendment is a targeted modification to existing immigration law, designed to broaden the criteria for denying entry to potential security threats.
