In plain language

The Act limits law enforcement's cooperation with federal immigration enforcement at certain locations.

This Act restricts state and local law enforcement from participating in federal immigration actions at child-serving entities, schools, places of worship, and healthcare facilities, except in emergencies. If participation does occur, law enforcement must report it within 48 hours.

What this means for you
  • Workers: Workers at child-serving institutions and healthcare facilities may feel safer with these restrictions on immigration enforcement cooperation.
  • Families: This means families can expect reduced law enforcement presence in sensitive places during immigration enforcement actions.
  • Consumers: Consumers in healthcare and educational settings might encounter fewer disruptions from immigration enforcement activities.

Summary

This Act restricts State and local law-enforcement from cooperating with federal agencies conducting civil immigration enforcement activities at child-serving entities, institutions of higher education, places of worship, or health-care facilities except in exigent circumstances. This Act is a substitute for and differs from House Bill No. 94 and House Substitute 1 for House Bill No. 94 by simply prohibiting direct participation by law-enforcement in civil enforcement proceedings unless an exigent circumstance exists, rather than requiring the permission of the Attorney General. If law-enforcement does participate in such an activity because of an exigent circumstance, a report must be submitted to the Police Officer Standards and Training Commission and the Department of Safety and Homeland Security within 48 hours. These reports are to be aggregated in a biannual report and delivered to the General Assembly.
