The bill permanently cancels $70 billion in unobligated ICE funding that was provided under a recent law, which could shrink planned hiring, detention capacity, and operations at ICE, potentially affecting current and planned federal immigration enforcement jobs.
“Of the unobligated balances of amounts made available to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement by sections 90003 and 100052 of Public Law 119-21, $70,000,000,000 are hereby permanently rescinded.”
Referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and in addition to the Committee on the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
