Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill would codify Presidential Proclamation 9645 into law and extend its travel restrictions to include residents of the Gaza Strip. Presidential Proclamation 9645, issued in 2017, restricts travel to the United States from nationals of several countries deemed to present security concerns. Under this legislation, individuals residing in Gaza would face the same travel restrictions as those from the countries already covered by the proclamation. The bill would take effect upon enactment and contains no specific funding requirements or sunset provisions. The legislation would effectively prevent most Gaza residents from obtaining visas or entering the United States.
