Abstract

Existing federal law, the Immigration and Nationality Act, makes certain aliens ineligible to receive visas and ineligible to be admitted into the United States, except as specified. The act authorizes the United States Attorney General to parole into the United States, on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit, any alien applying for admission to the United States, as specified. Existing law authorizes the Governor to enter into specified agreements with the federal government on behalf of the state. Under existing law, these agreements concern various subject matters, including, but not limited to, health, such as the state Medicaid plan relating to the Medi-Cal program, and transportation matters. This bill would authorize the Governor to enter into an agreement with the United States Attorney General to establish a program for the United States Attorney General to grant an agricultural employee, as defined, parole pursuant to the above-described authorization under the act, as specified. Subject to implementation of that program, the bill would require the Governor to prepare a report on the impact of the program on the 3rd year of the renewal of the program, as provided.
