Immigration

This bill (H 2009) is a symbolic resolution expressing support for federal immigration detainers issued by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). It does not alter ICE's enforcement procedures or create new legal requirements. The bill directly affects state and local law enforcement agencies that receive ICE detainer requests by affirming their role in cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. It was introduced by Representative Alyson M. Sullivan-Almeida as a statement of legislative backing for existing ICE practices. The resolution has no binding effect on actual detention policies.
