The KAMALA Act prohibits housing and community development grants from being used to assist individuals who are not U.S. nationals or lawfully admitted for permanent residence. It also prevents the Secretary from providing grants to any state, local government, or Indian tribe that administers housing or community development programs offering assistance to individuals who are not U.S. nationals or lawfully admitted for permanent residence.

The "Stop Woke Investing Act" aims to modify SEC regulations regarding shareholder proposals, limiting the number of proposals companies must include on proxy cards based on filer status (non-accelerated, accelerated, large accelerated). It mandates that only proposals with a material financial impact on the company can be included, as determined by the company itself. This act does not require companies to include proposals that are otherwise excludable under SEC rules.

Grant's Law mandates the detention of aliens unlawfully present in the U.S. who are arrested for offenses that would make them inadmissible or deportable. It requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to detain these individuals and initiate removal proceedings, completing them within 90 days of detention. The law also allows the Secretary to release aliens to the appropriate authority for proceedings after arrest, resuming custody when necessary, and ensures continued detention until removal proceedings are complete, even if the alien is not convicted of the offense for which they were arrested.
