Summary

The bill requires the Georgia Department of Public Health to set up yearly third‑party audits of any state‑located facility that holds non‑citizens detained under federal immigration authority. Audits must cover health care, sanitation, use of force, legal access and other standards, with results sent to top state officials and posted online. Facilities that repeatedly fail can lose state funding, have state licenses or permits withheld, or see local‑federal agreements limited.
