Plain-English Summary

The legislation would fix technical errors and outdated language in existing immigration laws to clarify how they work and ensure they're applied consistently. These corrections would affect immigration officials who enforce the laws, immigrants applying for visas or citizenship, and employers who hire foreign workers by removing confusing or contradictory provisions that currently exist in the legal code.
