Contact Congress about H.Res. 1030: To end ICE abuse.

This resolution pushes for ICE to lose funding, be replaced, and face tougher rules and oversight. It also calls for lawsuits against agents, investigations, and impeachment efforts against top officials. Most of that would still need separate laws before anything changed in real life.

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.

To end ICE abuse. is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committees on Homeland Security, and Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.

Latest action on H.Res. 1030: Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committees on Homeland Security, and Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people held by ICE, ICE agents, and the top officials who run federal immigration enforcement. It could also matter for families of people in detention, lawyers bringing civil rights cases, and other Department of Homeland Security agencies if future laws followed its funding demands. The biggest direct effects would be on how immigration arrests are carried out, how detention centers are run, and who can be sued or investigated after alleged abuse.

Why this matters: This matters because it targets both how immigration officers use power and how the federal government is set up to enforce immigration law. If lawmakers later turned these ideas into real law, agents could face tougher limits on force, fewer legal protections, and more outside scrutiny, while people in detention could get stronger health and safety protections. It also matters because the resolution goes beyond reform and calls for cutting funding, removing officials, and replacing ICE entirely. Still, the real-world effect is uncertain unless Congress and the president later approve binding laws.

Key provisions in H.Res. 1030

  • The House would oppose any new money for the Department of Homeland Security and try to cancel a long-term $75 billion funding deal for ICE.
  • The resolution calls for impeachment proceedings against the Homeland Security secretary, the U.S. attorney general, and other officials over alleged failures to protect constitutional rights.
  • ICE agents would lose qualified immunity, a legal shield that often blocks civil lawsuits. That would make it easier to sue them for alleged misconduct or unlawful force.
  • Independent federal and state authorities would be told to investigate ICE agents. If agents broke the law, authorities would be told to prosecute them and publicly report what they found.
  • The resolution would ban some immigration enforcement tactics. That includes racial profiling, militarized ICE operations, and practices it calls "Kavanaugh stops."
