Summary
The measure would prevent law‑enforcement officers from arresting someone on a civil or administrative immigration warrant while they are on the grounds of a school, church, hospital, social‑service agency, courthouse or similar location. It does not stop arrests based on a criminal warrant. The goal is to keep these public spaces free from immigration enforcement actions.
