HB 1585: A BILL for an Act to create and enact a new section to chapter 12-63 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to a requirement for peace officers to report undocumented immigrants to United States immigration and customs.

HB 1585 requires North Dakota peace officers (such as police and sheriffs) to report individuals they reasonably believe are in the U.S. illegally to U.S. immigration authorities. Officers must use a designated tip line or online form as soon as possible after forming this belief. Violating this requirement would be classified as an infraction, not a criminal offense.
