What this bill would do

This bill aims to designate Burma for temporary protected status. It treats Burma as if it had been designated under specific sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act. The initial designation period would last for 18 months, starting on November 25, 2025. To be eligible, certain aliens must have been continuously physically present in the United States since the Act's enactment. Eligible individuals must also be admissible as immigrants and register with the Secretary of Homeland Security.
