Unlikely to pass

This is a non-binding resolution meant to show support rather than change the law. It will likely stay in the House and not move further.

Key Points

This resolution is a formal way for the House of Representatives to say thank you to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. It praises them for their work in stopping criminal networks and drug traffickers.
The proposal highlights that these agents have faced a massive increase in death threats. It condemns any violence or harassment directed at these officers while they are doing their jobs.
It asks state and local police to work more closely with federal agents. The resolution mentions that some local agencies have stopped sharing data, which makes it harder to find dangerous criminals.
The resolution also thanks agents for taking on extra duties at airports. Because of a partial government shutdown, some agents have been helping with security and checking IDs at travel hubs.
