The purpose of this legislation, known as the Honor Our Commitment Act of 2026, is to protect certain Vietnamese nationals from being detained or removed from the United States. The Act aims to honor commitments made to these individuals, many of whom have been living in the U.S. for decades. Key provisions of the Act include a halt on the detention and removal of Vietnamese nationals who entered the U.S. before July 12, 1995, and have continuously resided here since that time.
