Businessowner Immigration Rights and Responsibilities Information Act of 2026

This bill would require the Small Business Administration (SBA) to create educational materials for small business owners and employees about their rights and responsibilities during immigration enforcement actions. The SBA would create online learning modules, a printed and electronic card about rights during enforcement actions and arrests, and planning materials on work authorization rules and I-9 audits. The materials would include a disclaimer that they are not legal advice, would be offered in the 15 most commonly spoken non-English languages and American Sign Language, and would be shared through SBA offices and resource partners. The SBA would have 180 days after the law takes effect to create the materials.
