POWER Act / Protect Our Workers from Exploitation and Retaliation Act is a House bill in Congress.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects workers who may be victims of crimes or serious labor violations, especially if they could face Department of Homeland Security enforcement. It also affects the Department of Homeland Security because the bill deals with removal during its enforcement actions.
Why this matters: This bill matters because workers who face crime or serious labor abuse may also face immigration enforcement risk. The bill would try to keep those victims from being removed during Department of Homeland Security enforcement actions. The available source text is limited, so the practical effects beyond that are not detailed here.

The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
