An Act supporting and honoring Immigration and Customs Enforcement lawful detainments (SHIELD Act)

S 1096, the SHIELD Act, requires state and local law enforcement agencies to comply with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer requests. It directly affects police departments and jails that receive ICE requests to hold individuals. The bill mandates that officials detain people for up to 48 hours beyond their release date if ICE issues a valid request. This policy change shifts responsibility to local authorities to facilitate ICE custody without requiring federal charges.
