Summary

The bill gives Iranian citizens in the United States who have pending immigration or work applications frozen in December 2025 a temporary protected status and the right to work legally. It aims to shield them from removal, unlawful presence, and financial hardship while they cannot safely return home because of the U.S.–Iran conflict and regime repression. The measure also seeks to keep their valuable contributions to the U.S. economy and society.
