S. 762, the "No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act," would amend immigration law to block entry into the United States and deny all forms of immigration relief to any foreign national who participated in, planned, financed, or otherwise supported the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel. The bill applies to individuals with any level of involvement in those attacks, from direct participation to material support. It affects anyone seeking to enter the United States or those already in the country who fall under these categories, making them ineligible for asylum, stays of removal, or other immigration protections. The legislation also requires the Department of Homeland Security to submit annual reports beginning one year after enactment documenting how many individuals have been found inadmissible or removable under these new provisions. There is no specific funding authorization mentioned in the bill.
