Summary

The bill adds a new section to state law that permits police, sheriffs and other officials who have a person in custody to detain that person longer than normal if they receive a written request and warrant from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It applies only to individuals who are removable aliens and who meet specific safety‑related criteria, and it limits detention to 12 hours unless a judge finds probable cause.
