This proposed legislation, titled the "Alien Removal Not Resort Stays Act," aims to terminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Shelter and Services Program (SSP) immediately upon its enactment. The bill explicitly prohibits any future federal funds from being appropriated or made available to the SSP or any successor program with a similar purpose. A key provision mandates that all unobligated balances previously allocated to the SSP must be transferred to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) . These funds are specifically designated for ICE's "operations and support" account, to be utilized for necessary expenses related to enforcement, detention, and removal operations , thereby redirecting resources from shelter services to immigration enforcement activities.
