H.R. 8638 · 117th Congress

ORR Act of 2022

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

No cosponsors.

Overhaul Resettlement Reasonably Act of 2022 or the ORR Act of 2022

This bill modifies various immigration-related provisions.

For example, the bill (1) increases to $25,000 (currently $1,500) the minimum amount of a security bond that the Department of Homeland Security may require before releasing a detained non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) from custody while a decision is pending as to whether to remove that non-U.S. national from the United States, and (2) imposes additional requirements before an individual may be considered an unaccompanied alien child (immigration law imposes various requirements relating to the treatment of unaccompanied alien children).
