This section appears in one version only, so there is nothing to compare yet.
Section 212(d)(14) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(d)(14)) is amended to read as follows: (14) The Secretary of Homeland Security shall determine whether a ground of inadmissibility exists with respect to a nonimmigrant described in section 101(a)(15)(U). The Secretary of Homeland Security or an immigration judge may waive the application of subsection (a) (other than paragraph (3)(E)) in the case of a nonimmigrant described in section 101(a)(15)(U), if the Secretary of Homeland Security or immigration judge considers it to be in the public or national interest to do so..
