A bill to strengthen the consequences of the fraudulent use of United States or foreign passports and other immigration documents.
2005: Sponsored H.R. 884, Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits, and Security Act of 2005, introduced by Rep. Chris Cannon (R-Utah)
2005: Sponsored H.R. 925, Identification Integrity Act of 2005, introduced by Rep. Elton Gallegly (R-Calif.)
2005: Sponsored S. 455, ACTION Act of 2005, introduced by Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.)
To authorize appropriations for fiscal years 2006 and 2007 for the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, and for other purposes.
S. 455, the ACTION Act, would expedite and expand the processing of student visas, loosening some of the requirements for background checks and thus making it easier for foreign students to enter the country legally and remain in the country illegally.
H.R. 925, the Identification Integrity Act, would make it harder for illegal aliens to gain government services and to otherwise profit from their illegal activity by prohibiting federal agencies from accepting foreign issued IDs (except for passports).
H.R. 884, the Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits, and Security Act, would create a massive agricultural guest-worker amnesty, allowing approximately 860,000 of the 1.2 million illegal aliens currently working in agriculture – plus their spouses and children – to qualify for this amnesty, thus pushing the total to three million or more. It would also reward illegal immigration by protecting illegal aliens granted temporary resident status from prosecution for Social Security fraud.
