GOP Congressman Proposes Bill To Halt All Somalia Immigration To The U.S.

The Somalia Immigration Moratorium Act aims to halt Somali immigration for 25 years due to high welfare use, fraud, and security concerns, with 81% of Somali households on welfare.

  • Rep. Brandon Gill proposed a bill to impose a 25-year moratorium on immigration from Somalia, citing fraud and lack of assimilation as key issues.
  • The bill aims to amend section 212 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, preventing Somali immigration while upholding existing lawful statuses.
  • Gill stated, 'Mass Somali immigration makes the United States weaker, poorer and erodes social trust,' emphasizing the need for policy changes.
  • Statistics show significant welfare dependency among Somali immigrants, with 81% of households on welfare and 73% on Medicaid, reinforcing Gill's concerns.
