Bill overview
This bill, the Neighbors Not Enemies Act, aims to eliminate a historical law that allowed the President to remove individuals from the United States deemed ‘alien enemies’ during times of war or invasion. Specifically, it repeals sections of the Revised Statutes of the United States that authorized this action. The bill seeks to restore protections for individuals based on their citizenship, regardless of wartime conditions. It represents a step back from a controversial aspect of U.S. immigration law.
