Bill overview
The HOPE Act amends immigration law to allow certain veteran aliens who need healthcare from the Department of Veterans Affairs to be paroled into the United States temporarily. This parole process would be determined on a case-by-case basis by the Department of Homeland Security, and it would not be considered an admission to the country. The bill establishes specific criteria for eligibility, including being a U.S. veteran seeking VA healthcare and having previously been ordered removed or voluntarily departed from the U.S.
