Domestic Jobs Protection Act

This proposal would change the legal meaning of “unauthorized alien” in U.S. immigration law. That term is used to decide who is allowed to work in the United States. By changing the definition, the bill could alter who is considered authorized to work and how employers check work permission, but the text provided does not explain the exact new wording or details of the change.

Key points

• What changes: The definition of “unauthorized alien” in the Immigration and Nationality Act would be modified, which may change who can be hired and how work eligibility is verified. Specifics are not included in the provided text.
• When: Would take effect if enacted into law; no effective date is provided in the text here.
