WASHINGTON (AP) — Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy says the House will aim to pass legislation by year's end overhauling a program that allows visa-free travel to the U.S.

The so-called visa waiver program lets people from 38 countries visit the U.S. for 90-day stays without obtaining a visa. It has come under scrutiny following the Paris terror attacks since some of the suspected perpetrators were from countries on the list.

McCarthy outlined several changes House Republicans would like to see to the program. They include requiring all countries to issue electronic passports and requiring all passengers to be screened against a database of lost and stolen passports.

Changing the visa waiver program appears to have bipartisan support in the House and the Senate and general agreement from the White House.
