Relating to agreements between municipalities and counties and United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement to enforce federal immigration law.
HB 2390 requires Texas cities and counties to enter written agreements with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under a federal program to allow local officers to enforce federal immigration law. The bill mandates that these agreements specify the scope, duration, and limits of local enforcement authority. Local governments failing to comply could face lawsuits by the attorney general and lose state grant funds for the following fiscal year. The law takes effect September 1, 2025, unless passed with a two-thirds vote.
