Bill overview
This bill, the Protecting America From Spies Act, strengthens U.S. immigration law by expanding the grounds for denying visas to individuals suspected of espionage or technology transfer activities. It specifically updates existing law to include knowledge or reasonable belief, by officials, that an alien is involved in activities that could harm national security or violate export regulations. The bill also clarifies waiver procedures for these inadmissibility grounds. This legislation aims to protect the United States from foreign intelligence threats and illicit technology transfer.
