Relates to guidance to facilities and programs overseen by state agencies on interactions with federal immigration authorities
This bill establishes a new "military immigrant family legacy program" for immigrant families with U.S. military connections, requiring state agencies to ask individuals seeking assistance about military service history. It mandates that agencies protect this information and refer eligible individuals to veterans' services for immigration and benefit assistance. Additionally, the bill requires state agencies to create guidance for handling requests from federal immigration authorities seeking access to people or records at state-run facilities. The policy directly affects immigrant families with military ties and state agencies operating public programs, while ensuring privacy for military status information shared during assistance requests.
