House Republicans have included five immigration-related measures in an initial package of rules for the 119th Congress, potentially teeing up early floor votes on an issue that the GOP heavily leaned into during the 2024 campaign.
The bills appear to be versions of legislation the House passed during the 118th Congress but stalled in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
Among the targets are sanctuary cities, consistent with President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign promises to bring down the hammer on municipalities that refuse to cooperate with immigration officials in removing undocumented migrants.
