Bill overview
This bill, the Blocking the Entry of Malign Actors Act, changes the rules about the President’s ability to prevent individuals from entering the United States who represent the United Nations. Currently, the President can only deny entry to UN representatives who have engaged in espionage or terrorism or pose a threat to U.S. national security. This legislation expands the President’s authority to deny entry to any UN representative, regardless of whether they meet both of those specific criteria. The goal is to strengthen national security by limiting the presence of potentially harmful individuals within the U.S.
