Reaffirming the importance of the United States promoting the safety, health, and well-being of refugees and displaced persons in the United States and around the world.
The bill HR1375 emphasizes the United States' role in ensuring the safety, health, and well-being of refugees and displaced persons both within the country and globally. This legislation aims to reaffirm the importance of these efforts and to guide the U.S. in its responsibilities towards those who have been forced to flee their homes. It would primarily affect government agencies, non-profits, and international organizations involved in refugee support and resettlement.
As of June 18, 2026, the bill has been introduced and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Committee on the Judiciary for further consideration. This marks the first step in the legislative process, where the bill will be reviewed and potentially amended before moving forward for a vote.
Key actions so far include its submission in the House and referral to the relevant committees on the same day, June 18, 2026. The bill is still in the early stages, and ongoing committee reviews will determine its next steps in the legislative process.
