Unlikely to pass

This bill targets the budget of a specific law enforcement agency and currently lacks the broad support needed to pass through a divided Congress.

Key Points

This bill would stop the Department of Homeland Security from spending any tax dollars on television commercials for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, also known as ICE.
The ban covers ads meant to recruit new workers, promote specific ICE programs, or simply try to make the agency look better to the public.
If passed, the Secretary of Homeland Security would be legally blocked from paying for the production or broadcasting of these TV spots.
The goal of the bill is to ensure that government money is spent on agency operations rather than public relations or branding campaigns.
