What the document says

“Visa sanctions under section 243(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 177

Section 243(d) allows the suspension of visa issuance to countries that will not take back their nationals who have been ordered removed from the United States. The chapter says it should be quickly and fully enforced, that sanctions should cover immigrant visas, non-immigrant visas or all visas, and that they should stay until the country accepts all its removal-pending nationals and commits to future acceptance.

What the document actually says

“Visa sanctions under section 243(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 177
That sentence, in plain words

One law lets America stop giving visas to a country. Use it fully.

What this is about

Some countries will not take back their own people. The law lets America stop giving them visas. The book says to use that power fully.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to read this page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the book itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
