H.R. 3837: EO 14218 Act of 2025

This bill, known as the EO 14218 Act of 2025, aims to officially establish and make law an existing Executive Order, specifically Executive Order 14218. The main intent of this Executive Order is to terminate taxpayer funding that supports what is described in the bill as “open borders.”

Key Provisions

• Codification of Executive Order: The bill seeks to give formal legal status to Executive Order 14218, ensuring it has binding authority as law.
• Focus on Subsidization: The primary focus is on eliminating financial support provided by taxpayers that supports policies or actions associated with open borders.

Implications

If passed, this legislation would mean that any federal funds that are currently being allocated towards open border policies would be discontinued. This could include various forms of funding or subsidies that are used to support border security, immigration services, or related activities that are deemed as contributing to open borders.

The bill does not specify in detail what constitutes “open borders” and relies on the previous Executive Order for clarification. The exact changes in funding would depend on how the existing policies are interpreted and how they align with the goals of this bill.

Potential Effects on Government Agencies and Programs

• Immigration Agencies: Agencies such as the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement may experience funding changes impacting their operations.
• State and Local Programs: Programs supported at the state or local level that rely on federal funding related to immigration and border security could also see budget impacts.
