The Federal Grant Neutrality Act aims to restrict the Attorney General's authority in determining eligibility for Department of Justice grants. It specifically prohibits the Attorney General from requiring grant applicants to agree to, certify compliance with, or actually comply with certain federal mandates. This includes section 642 of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 , which pertains to the sharing of immigration information. Furthermore, the bill extends this prohibition to any memorandum issued by the President or any Executive order issued by the President . The intent is to ensure that an entity's eligibility for DOJ grant funds is not contingent upon adherence to these specific laws, memoranda, or executive orders.
