The Secure Borders, Stable Families Act (SBSFA)

A comprehensive legislative proposal to modernize the United States immigration system through three core pillars: Legal Order, Economic Stability, and National Security.

Preamble and Legislative Intent

The purpose of this Act is to modernize the United States immigration system by establishing legal integrity at the border, enforcing a strict zero-tolerance policy for criminal non-citizens, and providing a defined, earned pathway to legal certainty for long-term, non-violent residents to promote National Economic Stability and Community Welfare.

This bill focuses on three core pillars: Legal Order, Economic Stability, and National Security.

TITLE I: DEFINITIVE CITIZENSHIP AND NATIONAL INTEGRITY

Sec. 101. DACA Path to Citizenship

Grants immediate Conditional Permanent Resident (CPR) status to all DACA-eligible individuals, leading to full U.S. Citizenship after a period of five (5) years of continuous residency, maintenance of a clean criminal record, and consistent tax compliance.

Sec. 102. Restriction of Birthright Citizenship

Only children born in the United States to at least one parent who is a U.S. Citizen or a Lawful Permanent Resident shall be granted citizenship at birth. (This measure is intended to test the current judicial interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment.)

Sec. 103. Exclusive Voter Eligibility

Only U.S. Citizens shall be eligible to vote in all federal, state, and local elections nationwide.

TITLE II: UNIVERSAL IDENTIFICATION AND STATUS MANAGEMENT

Sec. 201. Mandatory National Residency Database

Mandates the creation of a secure, national biometric ID system. All persons residing in the U.S., regardless of legal status, must register for an ID card within three (3) years of this Act's enactment.

Sec. 202. Temporary Visitor (TV) Status

Converts the status of long-term unauthorized residents (defined as residing since before the bill's enactment) to Temporary Visitor (TV) status, which grants immediate work authorization for an initial period of two (2) years.

Sec. 203. TV Status Cap and Certainty

TV status is capped at a maximum aggregate period of ten (10) years. At the conclusion of this 10-year period, the individual must successfully transition into a permanent visa category or face mandatory, expedited removal proceedings.

Sec. 204. Exclusion of Criminal Non-Citizens

NO INDIVIDUAL with a felony conviction or three (3) or more misdemeanors (excluding minor traffic violations) is eligible for Temporary Visitor (TV) status or the DACA pathway established in Sec. 101. These individuals shall be placed into immediate, mandatory removal proceedings. This program is exclusively for non-violent, law-abiding residents.

TITLE III: ECONOMIC AND LABOR REFORM

Sec. 301. Citizen Sponsorship for Visas

Creates a new, streamlined worker visa category requiring the foreign worker to be personally and legally guaranteed by a U.S. Citizen sponsor (who must be an owner or principal officer of the employing entity).

Sec. 302. Sponsor Financial and Behavioral Liability

The U.S. Citizen sponsor shall be financially liable for the worker's public charges for a period of five (5) years. The sponsor is also legally required to notify the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) immediately upon any criminal charges against the worker or termination of employment. Failure to comply results in substantial fines (scaling with company size) and a five-year sponsorship ban.

Sec. 303. Worker Protection and Mobility

If employment is terminated, the sponsored worker receives a 60-day grace period to find a new certified employer and sponsor without losing status. A confidential DHS system is established for workers to report sponsor exploitation without fear of deportation.

TITLE IV: EXPEDITED ADJUDICATION AND LEGAL CERTAINTY

Sec. 401. Dedicated Adjudication Force

Mandates the hiring and fast-tracked security clearance for five hundred (500) new Immigration Judges and one thousand (1,000) Asylum Officers to immediately address the current immigration court backlog.

Sec. 402. Immigration Status Review Boards (ISRB)

Creates three-member, dedicated Immigration Status Review Boards (ISRB) within DHS field offices. These boards are vested with the authority to render final administrative decisions on Temporary Visitor (TV) Status extensions and final green card approvals for all legalization applicants under this Act.

Sec. 403. Due Process Oversight

ISRB decisions shall remain subject to a mandatory, but limited, review by a sitting U.S. Federal Court upon credible allegation of a due process violation, thereby ensuring accountability.

Note: This is a legislative proposal and is not currently enacted law. The content above represents the proposed text of the Secure Borders, Stable Families Act (SBSFA). For questions about current immigration law and policy, please refer to official government resources.

Healthcare Price Transparency

The Common-Sense Cure: Why Price Transparency is the Bipartisan Fix to Sky-High Healthcare Bills

By The Vote United Team

Try to buy a gallon of milk without seeing the price, or book a flight without knowing the fare. It's impossible. Yet, this is the absurd, expensive reality of American healthcare, where the cost of a procedure remains a secret until the bill arrives, often weeks later, threatening a family's financial stability. At VoteUnited.com, we see this not as an ideological battle, but as a crisis of common sense: when consumers can't compare prices, the market can't function. The bipartisan solution is simple: full, accessible price transparency to put power back into the hands of patients and force prices down.

The Problem: A System Built on Secret Prices

The price of healthcare services in America varies wildly—not just between different cities, but between hospitals across the street from one another.1 This disparity is often massive and totally arbitrary. A simple MRI can cost $500 at an independent imaging center and $5,000 at a major hospital system, often for the exact same service.

Why does this happen? Because the prices are hidden. Large healthcare conglomerates and insurance companies negotiate rates in secret, binding contracts, ensuring that the consumer—the one paying the bill—is the last to know the cost. This lack of information destroys any possibility of a competitive market. When price is opaque, providers have no incentive to compete on cost, allowing prices to inflate unchecked.

The Bipartisan Call for Accountability

For Fiscal Conservatives and Free-Market Advocates

Transparency is the key to creating a true market. It empowers the consumer to shop around, rewarding efficient, lower-cost providers and penalizing those who overcharge. This is the free-market cure to healthcare inflation.

For Populists and Patient Advocates

Transparency exposes corporate price gouging and unfair billing practices.2 It's an essential tool for accountability that protects the average family from financial ruin caused by surprise bills and arbitrary cost hikes.

The Vote United Solution: Making Cost Clear

Our proposed solution is straightforward and powerful: Mandate full, easily accessible price transparency for all medical services and procedures before a patient receives care.

This mandate must go beyond complicated, downloadable spreadsheet files. Prices must be:

  1. Consumer-Friendly: Posted in a clear, searchable, and intuitive format (like a menu) on a provider's public website.
  2. Comprehensive: Include not just the "list price," but the negotiated rates with major insurers and the cash price for the uninsured.
  3. Actionable: Allow a patient to easily compare the costs of bundled services (e.g., a knee replacement) across multiple local providers.

The Results: Lower Costs and Restored Trust

When patients, employers, and government payers can see the true cost, they gain immediate leverage. Imagine an employer purchasing healthcare for thousands of staff, suddenly being able to choose the high-quality, lower-cost provider nearby. The sheer threat of losing business will force every facility to reassess their pricing models.

Truth above all means giving the patient the fundamental truth about the cost of their care so they can make an informed, confident decision. Price transparency is not a philosophical cure for healthcare; it is the common-sense mechanism that restores market competition, drives down costs for everyone, and ensures that financial anxiety is not part of the recovery process.

Immigration Judicial Reform (Expanded)

From 7 Years to 7 Months: The Common-Sense Fix for Our Broken Immigration Courts

The single biggest bottleneck undermining both the rule of law and humanitarian fairness in our immigration system isn't found at the border; it's found in the staggering, dysfunctional Immigration Court backlog. With millions of cases pending, those who should be deported remain in the country for years, and those who deserve asylum wait a decade for justice. This is a system failing everyone. Our common-sense fix is clear: stop treating the courts as an afterthought and invest massively in judges, asylum officers, and resources to ensure that every case—whether for removal or protection—is processed quickly, fairly, and decisively.

The Problem: Justice Delayed is Justice Denied

Currently, the backlog of cases in U.S. immigration courts exceeds two million, and the average wait time for an individual case can span five to seven years. This is not just a statistical headache; it's a national security and humanitarian crisis.

For Enforcement:

When a removal order takes a decade to execute, it renders the concept of timely enforcement meaningless and encourages more unlawful crossings. The cost to taxpayers to track and manage these individuals is astronomical.

For Asylum Seekers:

Those with legitimate claims, often fleeing violence and persecution, are left in agonizing limbo for years, unable to establish stable lives or reunite with family. This failure compromises America's promise of due process and humanitarian protection.

The core issue is a radical imbalance: when border funding is increased (a frequent bipartisan priority), it rightly leads to more border personnel and more apprehensions. However, the subsequent step—funding the courts that must hear those cases—is routinely ignored. We are operating a 21st-century enforcement apparatus with a 20th-century court system.

The Bipartisan Solution: Treat the Courts as Essential Infrastructure

The solution is not complex, nor is it partisan. It is a fundamental resourcing problem. The Vote United approach demands full, systemic funding:

  1. Massive Judge and Staff Recruitment: Hire thousands of new immigration judges, along with the support staff and courtrooms necessary to handle the current case volume efficiently.
  2. Increased Asylum Officers: Empower and increase the number of asylum officers, who can resolve many legitimate claims administratively outside of the formal court system, saving valuable court time.
  3. Invest in Technology: Implement modern IT infrastructure, digital filing, and remote hearing capabilities to streamline the process, eliminating the logistical bottlenecks that plague old systems.

The Results: Restoring Rule of Law and Fairness

A properly funded and efficient court system achieves the core goals of all parties:

  • Timely Enforcement: For cases where removal is ordered, the decision can be executed quickly, restoring the integrity of the border and the rule of law.
  • Prompt Protection: Legitimate asylum seekers receive the protection they need in months, not years, fulfilling our humanitarian commitment and allowing them to immediately contribute to their communities.
  • Fiscal Sanity: The cost of years-long monitoring and managing a giant backlog is far greater than the cost of hiring the personnel required to resolve the cases quickly and decisively.

Investing in judicial capacity is the most common-sense, truth-based approach to fixing the foundation of our broken immigration process.

Rural Broadband Access

Broadband is the New Electrification: Why High-Speed Internet is a Non-Negotiable American Necessity

Just over a century ago, America mobilized to bring electricity to every farm and homestead, transforming the nation's economy. Today, we face a similar fundamental infrastructure challenge: the digital divide. Millions of citizens, particularly those in rural communities, lack the high-speed internet necessary to participate in modern telemedicine, education, and e-commerce. This isn't just about convenience; it's an economic and equity barrier that holds back entire regions. Our solution is pragmatic and unites all parties: treat broadband like the essential utility it is and strategically fund the "last mile" connections necessary to ensure universal access and unlock America's full economic potential.

The Problem: The Digital Divide is an Economic Handicap

In the 21st century, access to reliable, high-speed internet is no longer a luxury; it is the lifeline of commerce, education, and healthcare. Where broadband is slow or nonexistent, communities suffer a cascade of consequences:

  • Healthcare: Telemedicine, a critical service for elderly and remote populations, becomes impossible, forcing costly and time-consuming travel for basic care.
  • Education: Students cannot complete homework or access online learning resources, deepening the educational gap between rural and urban districts.
  • Economy: Small businesses cannot use e-commerce, and farmers are blocked from implementing data-driven precision agriculture, severely limiting local economic growth and productivity.

The digital divide is not a problem created by government; it is a problem that requires coordinated government action because the private market will not—and cannot—profitably string fiber optics across vast, sparsely populated areas.

The Bipartisan Call for Modern Infrastructure

For Rural Conservatives

This is a vital economic investment that supports Main Street businesses, strengthens the agricultural sector, and enables rural areas to attract modern industries and remote workers. It's about ensuring all communities can compete.

For Progressives and Equity Advocates

This is an essential step toward social equity and universal access to critical services. Broadband closes the educational and healthcare gaps that leave underserved populations behind.

The Vote United Solution: Strategic Investment in the Last Mile

Our approach is to treat broadband deployment as an investment in national competitiveness, requiring targeted, fiscally responsible spending:

  1. Fund "Last Mile" Connections: Target federal and state funding—through grants and loans—specifically at the final, most expensive leg of the network: running fiber directly to homes, businesses, and farms in low-density areas.
  2. Prioritize Fiber-Optic Technology: Demand that public funds prioritize future-proof, high-speed technologies like fiber-optic cables, rather than settling for outdated, slower solutions.
  3. Ensure Affordability and Competition: Require that recipients of public funds adhere to reasonable pricing structures and allow for multiple service providers to use the publicly-funded infrastructure (open-access), ensuring competition keeps costs low for the consumer.

This is an investment in American unity and long-term productivity. Connecting every citizen is the clearest, most common-sense path to securing future prosperity for all regions of the country.
