Added context

The Department of Homeland Security proposed a rule in June 2026 to increase U.S. citizenship application fees by 75% to 80%. Paper filing (Form N-400) rises from $760 to $1,330. Online filing (Form N-400) rises from $710 to $1,280. Rehearing/appeal (Form N-336) rises significantly, with online requests increasing to $1,475.

While Executive Order 14418 seeks to restrict citizenship and eligibility for government programs, the Yemen TPS Act (H.R. 10853) was introduced to provide legal status and protections to individuals from Yemen, directly opposing the administration's efforts to terminate such protections.
