After the terrorist assaults on Israeli citizens by Hamas, a congressman has proposed a restriction on Palestinians entering the country.
Rep. Ryan Zinke, a Republican from Montana, took a risk when he introduced the Safeguarding Americans from Extremism Act.

Prevent authorized immigrants from bringing “Palestinian terrorists” into the United States. The measure requires the Department of Homeland Security to stop giving passports with the Palestinian Authority to holders of visas, refugee status, and asylum.
Holders with PA passports lose their visas and refugee status due to a new bill! Protect our borders by acting right now.
Additionally, federal officials would be mandated to “identify and remove covered aliens without lawful status (including newly revoked status),” the release said.
“This legislation keeps America safe. I don’t trust the Biden Administration any more than I do the Palestinian Authority to screen who is allowed to come into the United States,” Zinke said. “This is the most anti-Hamas immigration legislation I have seen and it’s well deserved.
“Given the circumstances, the threats to our immigration system and the history of terrorists abusing refugee, asylum and visa processes all over the world, the requirements in this bill are necessary to keep Americans safe,” he said.
The measure has nine distinct state-based Republican congressmen co-sponsoring it. Together, these varied representatives from Maryland, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, Alabama, Georgia, and Arizona are promoting this significant legislation.
“This … is a very, very hard and harsh bill. Absolutely,” Zinke stated, as reported by Fox News.
“I think this is the most stringent anti-Gaza, anti-Hamas immigration … bill ever, and I can tell you this administration is deserving of it because, to date, I haven’t seen them screen anybody,” he said.
ALERT! Major Water Restrictions In Effect!
Republicans in Congress are calling for the expulsion of American citizens who support Hamas and are in the country on student visas. Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina made this audacious announcement in a recent press release.
The letter, which was signed by 17 other Republicans and addressed to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, was organized by Duncan and Representative Jim Banks of Indiana.
The letter stated that if international students “endorse or espouse terror activity,” they may not be granted entry into the United States with a visa.
Pro-Hamas protests on college campuses around the nation, according to Republican politicians “are most reasonably interpreted as endorsing or espousing terrorism.”
“Similarly, praising mass murder … and glorifying the perpetrators of such atrocities as ‘martyrs’ are clear endorsements of terrorism and terrorist organizations,” the letter said.
Duncan stated in a release, “If you’re a visitor to our country and support Hamas’ gruesome murder of innocent babies and killing people while they sleep, then you do not get to remain in America and enjoy freedoms that are antithetical to the terrorist extremists you support.”
“We need to shut down our border and then deport all non-citizen Hamas sympathizers,” Banks said. “The Biden administration has the legal authority and an obligation to do both — anything less betrays America’s national security.”
