AN ACT RELATING TO STATE AFFAIRS AND GOVERNMENT -- RESTRICTIONS ON STATE AND MUNICIPAL COOPERATION WITH CIVIL IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT

Summary

The bill stops state and municipal resources from being used to enforce civil immigration laws unless a court order or warrant is presented. It applies to police, prosecutors and other local officials, while still allowing cooperation on criminal cases and when a detainee faces a capital charge. The goal is to uphold the principle that the federal government cannot force states to carry out immigration enforcement.
