CARE Act of 2025 Community Assent for Refugee Entry Act of 2025
To limit resettlement in certain States or localities.
This bill, known as the CARE Act of 2025, proposes to restrict the resettlement of refugees in certain states or localities. This means that the bill would give the federal government the ability to limit where refugees can be placed once they arrive in the country. This could impact how and where refugees integrate into communities, potentially affecting local resources and services.
The CARE Act would affect refugee resettlement agencies, local governments, and communities where refugees are placed. It could lead to changes in how refugees are distributed across the country, potentially increasing the burden on some areas while decreasing it in others.
HB6414 was introduced on December 3, 2025, and was immediately referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. This is the first step in the legislative process, where the bill will be reviewed and possibly revised before moving forward. No further actions have been taken yet, and the bill's future remains uncertain.
