This legislative proposal amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to bolster national security measures. It introduces new provisions to address potential threats from individuals who may be compelled to assist foreign intelligence operations. The bill establishes new grounds for both inadmissibility and deportability for aliens. Specifically, an alien would be deemed inadmissible or deportable if they are subject to a law of any foreign country that requires them to provide access, cooperation, or support for that country's intelligence-gathering activities or operations. This aims to prevent individuals under such foreign mandates from entering or remaining in the United States.
