Immigration holds.

(1) Existing state law provides that a law enforcement official has discretion to cooperate with federal immigration officials by detaining an individual on the basis of an immigration hold after the person becomes eligible for release only if continued detention of the individual on the basis of the hold does not violate federal, state, or local law, or any local policy, and the person has been convicted of certain crimes. This bill would require a local law enforcement official to cooperate with federal immigration officials by detaining an individual convicted of a felony on the basis of an immigration hold for up to 48 hours, as specified, after the person becomes eligible for release from custody if continued detention on the basis of the immigration hold would not violate federal law. By creating new duties for local officials, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would also make conforming changes. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
