This bill restricts New York State University (SUNY) police and employees from engaging with federal immigration enforcement. It prohibits them from asking about immigration status, notifying immigration authorities about campus individuals, transferring custody to immigration officials without a court order, or entering immigration status into databases. Key provisions require written consent forms (in multiple languages) for any immigration-related interviews and ban using immigration officials as interpreters. The law directly affects SUNY campus staff and aims to protect students, faculty, and visitors from campus-based immigration enforcement actions.
