Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Summary
The bill changes the Immigration and Nationality Act by creating a universal "national‑interest" test for all visas, ending many family‑based categories, and abolishing the diversity‑visa lottery. It also tightens public‑charge rules, sponsor requirements, naturalization standards, and employment‑based programs such as H‑1B and Optional Practical Training, while adding new penalties for overstays and revising asylum and parole procedures. The changes aim to focus immigration on economic self‑sufficiency, cultural assimilation, and U.S. worker protection.
