Preventing the Abuse of Immigration Parole Act

This bill limits the government's ability to temporarily let people into the United States through a process called "parole," which is currently used for urgent humanitarian reasons or public benefit. It sets a cap of 3,000 people per year who can be let in this way. It also blocks parole for people from China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, or Syria unless the Department of State grants a special waiver. The bill also removes the government's separate authority to use parole to bring refugees into the country for public interest reasons.
