Bill overview
The Stateless Protection Act of 2022 aims to provide legal protections and a pathway to status for stateless persons currently residing in the United States. It establishes ‘stateless protected status,’ offering safeguards against deportation and access to employment and travel. The bill also seeks to prevent statelessness from occurring under U.S. law and urges the international community to take action to reduce global statelessness. It accomplishes this primarily by amending the Immigration and Nationality Act to create a new category of status and by making changes to existing provisions related to citizenship and foundlings.
