house 09/26/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to ensure that members of the Armed Forces and the National Guard are not used to enforce immigration laws, reinforcing the principle that military personnel should not be involved in domestic law enforcement. This legislation aims to uphold the Posse Comitatus Act and maintain a clear separation between military duties and immigration enforcement.

This bill draws a clear line — the military’s job isn’t to be border cops, and maybe that’s a good thing.

Using soldiers to chase immigrants? That’s not defense; it’s a distraction from real security.

Mixing soldiers with immigration enforcement? Sounds like a recipe for blurred lines and blurred rights.

Finally, a bill that keeps our troops out of the immigration chaos — armies protect, not patrol our borders.

Let’s keep the military in the barracks and leave compassion to the law enforcement pros.

Soldiers on the front lines of immigration? Let’s not war-fy a complex issue that demands civilian solutions.

National Guard or immigration agents? Better to keep those hats separate to avoid turning soldiers into lawmakers.

The military’s job is to defend the country, not babysit the border — leave enforcement to the pros.

Taking the troops out of immigration enforcement is smart; no soldier signed up to play border patrol.
