This bill would end the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Shelter and Services Program and stop any future federal funding for it or any similar replacement program. It would also move any unused money already set aside for that program into Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s budget, where it would be used for enforcement, detention, and removal activities related to immigration.
- It would block federal money from being used for the Shelter and Services Program starting on the day the bill becomes law.
- The ban would also apply to any new program that is similar to the one being ended.
- Any unspent money already approved for the program would be transferred to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
- That money would then be used for enforcement, detention, and removal operations.
