Stop Importing Terrorism Act

Summary

Stop Importing Terrorism Act This bill tightens U.S. admission restrictions on a spouse or child of certain individuals barred from the United States due to terrorist activity and makes deportable certain previously admitted individuals. Under current law, the spouse or child of an individual who is inadmissible to the United States due to terrorist activity is barred from admission to the United States if the terrorist activity occurred within the last five years. However, there is an exception that applies to a spouse or child of such an individual (1) who did not know or should not have reasonably known of the terrorist activity, or (2) whom the consular officer or the Department of Justice has reasonable grounds to believe has renounced such activity. The bill repeals this exception. The bill also deems deportable any individual admitted under this exception on or after January 20, 2021.
