WALL Act of 2025

This bill sets aside $25 billion to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. To pay for it, the bill limits certain tax credits — like the child tax credit, earned income credit, and lifetime learning credit — to people who have Social Security numbers and are allowed to work in the United States, and it charges a $300 fee per person for those who file taxes using an individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) instead of a Social Security number. The bill also limits access to certain government benefits, like food assistance, unemployment payments, and housing help, to people eligible to work in the U.S., and requires agencies to use the E-Verify system to check whether applicants qualify. Additionally, the bill creates fines for non-U.S. nationals who enter the country improperly or stay longer than their visas allow.
