This bill, introduced by Sen. Kim, would stop the government from using money from a previous law to hire new immigration and border officers. It specifically targets U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The plan would ban using these specific funds to pay the salaries of any agents or officers hired after the bill passes. It also prevents the money from being used for recruitment, job advertisements, or special bonuses meant to attract or keep new employees.
This move aims to control how many new people are added to the immigration enforcement workforce. By cutting off this funding, the bill would make it harder for these agencies to expand their operations or increase the number of staff working on border and immigration issues.
