H.R. 9030: No Immigration Without Assimilation Act of 2026

This bill, titled the "No Immigration Without Assimilation Act of 2026," proposes changes to the Immigration and Nationality Act in order to require mandatory screenings for incoming immigrants. Here are the main points of the bill:

1. Assimilation Screening

The bill introduces a requirement for an "assimilation likelihood screening" for immigrants. Under this provision:

• Individuals who hold views considered incompatible with the principles of the United States, are unlikely to assimilate into American culture, or whose presence might be detrimental to the culture and cohesion of the country would be declared inadmissible for immigration.

2. Deportability Clauses

The bill also amends the deportation criteria, allowing for the removal of immigrants who meet the following criteria:

• Hold views incompatible with U.S. principles.
• Are unlikely to assimilate into U.S. culture.
• Whose presence is seen as detrimental to U.S. culture and cohesion.

3. Mandatory Screening Process

Prior to any immigration benefit being granted, the Secretary of Homeland Security must conduct:

• An interview with the immigrant.
• A review of the immigrant's public statements.
• Interviews with relatives or others who can provide insight into the immigrant’s character and beliefs.

This process aims to evaluate whether the immigrant aligns with U.S. principles and is likely to integrate into American society.

4. Definitions of Incompatible Views

The bill defines several beliefs that would be deemed incompatible with U.S. principles, including:

• Support for religious laws to replace U.S. laws.
• Justification of violence based on religious or political beliefs.
• Denial of constitutional rights.
• View that the Constitution or amendments are not the supreme law of the land.
• Preference for authoritarian government over democracy.
• Failure to learn or attempt to learn the English language.

5. Immigration Benefit Application

The term "immigration benefit application" encompasses any request for status changes, extensions, or new applications under immigration law.
