What this amendment would do

SA 5494, submitted by Mr. Warner, aims to restrict how funds from bill S. 2 are used regarding Federal immigration enforcement.

The amendment proposes to prohibit the use of funds to train, deploy, or coordinate immigration enforcement with Federal employees who are not part of the Department of Homeland Security if:

  • The employees' primary responsibilities focus on drug trafficking, terrorism, or combating child exploitation.

  • The intent is to use more than 5 days of those employees' time per fiscal year for immigration enforcement.
