Somalia Immigration Moratorium Act
To amend section 212 of the Immigration and Nationality Act to prohibit immigration relief for certain citizens or nationals of Somalia.
This bill, HB7359, proposes changes to the Immigration and Nationality Act to stop certain Somalian citizens or nationals from getting immigration relief. This means it could prevent some people from Somalia from entering or staying in the country under specific conditions.
If passed, this bill would mainly affect Somalian citizens or nationals seeking immigration relief. It would not apply to other nationalities. The changes would only affect those who are trying to immigrate under the specified circumstances outlined in the bill.
HB7359 was introduced on February 4, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. This is the first step in its journey through the legislative process. The committee will review the bill, hold hearings if necessary, and decide whether to move it forward for further debate and voting.
