HR 1088
Introduced Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.

Summary

This Act authorizes the President to use funds that were paused under Executive Order 14169 (issued January 20, 2025) for the purpose of deporting individuals who are in the United States unlawfully. The bill overrides any other provision of law that would prevent the use of these paused funds for deportation. The legislation does not appropriate new funds or establish new agencies; it redirects previously paused funding to deportation activities. The bill was referred to the Committees on Foreign Affairs and the Judiciary for consideration.
