Unlikely to pass

This bill is supported only by Republicans and faces a very difficult path in a divided Congress where immigration and gun laws are highly controversial.

Key Points

This bill would stop undocumented immigrants from carrying guns or ammunition even if they work for a government agency. It targets a specific part of federal law that currently allows government employees to carry weapons even if they would normally be banned from owning them.
The change would prevent local or state police departments from hiring undocumented immigrants for roles that require carrying a firearm. It ensures that the general ban on gun possession for those in the country illegally applies to government work too.
Supporters of the bill argue that individuals who are not in the country legally should not be in positions of authority where they enforce laws or carry weapons. They believe this closes a loophole that some cities might use to hire non-citizens for law enforcement.
If this bill becomes law, any government entity that provides a firearm or ammunition to an undocumented worker would be in violation of federal law. This would apply to all levels of government, including local, state, and federal offices.
