Allow State Sovereignty Upon Refugee Entry (ASSURE) Act
This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to set forth requirements for programs for domestic resettlement of, and assistance to, refugees.
Before initial placement or resettlement of a refugee in a state, and before any assistance is provided to a refugee in a state, the Office of Refugee Resettlement must submit to the state legislature, and the state must enact, a plan covering that refugee.
The Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) shall ensure that every Identity History Summary provided by the FBI includes: (1) the subject's immigration or citizenship status, and (2) any violation of immigration laws that has been adjudicated regarding the subject.
