Contact Congress about H.R. 10034: Border Security and Immigration Reform Act

The bill would build more border wall, add border tools and staff, and make asylum harder to get. It would also create a legal path for some farmworkers and require citizenship documents for federal voter registration.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Border Security and Immigration Reform Act is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects migrants at the southern border, people seeking asylum, farmworkers without permanent status, border agencies, state election offices, and people registering to vote. It would change how people enter, ask for protection, prove identity, gain farmworker status, and prove citizenship for federal voting. It would also affect border communities, local police agencies that receive grants, and groups that help migrants.

Why this matters: This bill matters because it would change daily life at the border and make several immigration rules much stricter. It could change who gets to ask for asylum, how quickly border agents identify people, and how much wall and surveillance the government uses. It could also give some long-time farmworkers a legal path forward. At the same time, it would make federal voter registration depend on citizenship documents and government database checks.

Key provisions in H.R. 10034

  • DHS must restart border wall work within 7 days after the bill becomes law. This covers work that was underway or planned before January 20, 2021, using already approved funds and unused materials.
  • The bill requires at least 900 miles of wall, barriers, roads, and technology along the southwest border. DHS could waive any legal requirement needed to speed design, building, and operation.
  • DHS must keep sending Congress a wall-building plan. The plan must include yearly goals to build 200 miles a year until complete, plus cost estimates and technology plans.
  • DHS must create a 5-year plan for border and port security technology. It must update the plan every 2 years for 10 years and cover risks, gaps, buying priorities, testing, and privacy effects.
  • Large border technology projects would have formal management rules. Projects costing $100 million or more would need written baselines and outside review, but this section does not provide new money.
