The U.S. House of Representatives has passed two major bills to protect the rights of certain noncitizens entering the United States.
The bills the NO BAN Act and the Access to Counsel Act passed on April 21. They would restrict presidential powers to institute travel bans and ensure access to attorneys for certain people detained at ports of entry, respectively. The bills also would need to pass in the U.S. Senate to become law.
In January 2017, President Trump issued an executive order banning travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries and all refugee admission. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) detained nationals of the affected countries as they arrived to the United States, including legal permanent residents. Many were not allowed access to attorneys. Thousands of people protested the order at airports around the United States.
