Small Business ICE Disruption Fund Act

This bill would create a Small Business ICE Disruption Fund and provide $200 million for fiscal year 2026 to give grants to small businesses affected by federal immigration enforcement. To qualify, a business must be in an area where a federal immigration enforcement action took place within the last year and show a revenue loss of at least 25 percent caused by that action. Businesses with more than 15 locations and publicly traded companies could not qualify. Grants would equal the business's lost revenue, up to $500,000 per location and $1 million total, and would be awarded in the order applications are received. Applicants would have to certify their losses and pass fraud checks, including tax return verification.
