Immigration and Nationality Act Section 212(f)

Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 allows the U.S. President to disallow entry of aliens deemed "detrimental to the interests of the United States". It was invoked by President Ronald Reagan in 1981 as authorization for Executive Order 12324, by Donald Trump in 2018 as authorization for Migrant Protection Protocols, and by Joe Biden in 2024 as authorization for the measures listed in A Proclamation on Securing the Border.
