H.R.1 Rep. Rogers, Harold (R-KY) Full Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2011
(Provisions that would have (1) prohibited the U.S. Department of Justice from using any funds to sue Arizona in an effort to strike down its new immigration enforcement law, SB 1070 (2) would have prohibited government funds from being used to carry out the Visa Lottery (INA 201(e)), essentially abolishing the program (3) would have limited Department of Homeland Security to a maximum of 33,400 detention beds (as introduced, H.R. 1 set the minimum number of detention beds at 33,400). By limiting the number of detention beds, the amendment would have prevented Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from expanding its enforcement efforts against illegal aliens because it would have had nowhere to detain the illegal aliens while in the process of removing them from the U.S. (4) would have denied all funding for the implementation of REAL ID.)
H.R.140 Rep. King, Steve (R-IA) - Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011
(Provisions that would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to consider a person born in the United States "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States for citizenship at birth purposes if the person is born in the United States of parents, one of whom is: (1) a U.S. citizen or national; (2) a lawful permanent resident alien whose residence is in the United States; or (3) an alien performing active service in the U.S. Armed Forces.)
H.R.152 Rep. Poe, Ted (R-TX) - National Guard Border Enforcement Act
(Provisions that directs the Secretary of Defense (DOD) (Secretary) to deploy at least an additional 10,000 members of the National Guard for border control activities along the U.S.-Mexico border until the Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS) certifies that the federal government has achieved operational control of the border.)
H.R.800 Rep. Carter, John R. (R-TX) - Jobs Recovery by Ensuring a Legal American Workforce Act of 2011 (Provisions that would apply to both prospective and current employees, guaranteeing a legal workforce and cutting off the jobs magnet, the bill also prohibits employers from deducting wages paid to or on behalf illegal aliens, requires notification of social security number mismatches and multiple uses, and enhances information sharing between federal agencies.)
H.R.1091 Rep. Hunter, Duncan (R-CA) - Unlawful Border Entry Prevention Act of 2011
(Provisions that would (1) grant the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) authority to construct reinforced fencing along not less than 350 miles of the southwest border. (2) bill would also require Homeland Security to submit to Congress a plan to gain operational control of a specific sector of the southwest border if the Department determines that there has been a 40 percent increase in apprehensions of illegal aliens crossing the border in that sector.)
H.R.1134 Rep. Hunter, Duncan (R-CA) - Enforce the Law for Sanctuary Cities Act
(Provisions that would amend Section 241(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to prohibit state and local governments with sanctuary city policies in place from receiving federal reimbursements for incarcerating illegal aliens. (2) Under the bill, state and local governments would also be ineligible for SCAAP funds if they prohibit law enforcement officials from gathering information regarding the citizenship or immigration status of any individual.)
S.J.RES.2 Sen. Vitter, David (R-LA) - A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating to United States citizenship.
(Provisions relating to a person born in the United States shall not be a U.S. citizen unless: (1) one parent of the person is a U.S. citizen; (2) one parent of the person is an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the United States who resides in the United States; (3) one parent of the person is an alien performing active service in the U.S. Armed Forces; or (4) the person is naturalized in accordance with the laws of the United States.)
