Bill overview
This bill, the Protect American Taxpayer Dollars from Illegal Immigration Act, aims to limit how federal funds are used in legal settlements. Specifically, it prohibits the use of federal money – including funds deposited into the Judgment Fund – to pay settlements to individuals who unlawfully entered the United States. These settlements must not be related to claims stemming from the detention of family units after entry at a port of entry or between ports of entry along the southern border after January 20, 2017. The bill seeks to ensure taxpayer dollars are not spent on legal claims related to unlawful entry.
