Defines "immigration enforcement" broadly to include efforts on federal civil immigration law and certain criminal laws penalizing presence, entry, reentry, or employment, in the context of limiting access to sensitive facilities.
“immigration enforcement” includes any and all efforts to investigate, enforce, or assist in the investigation or enforcement of any federal civil immigration law, and also includes any and all efforts to investigate, enforce, or assist in the investigation or enforcement of any federal criminal immigration law that penalizes a person’s presence in, entry, or reentry to, or employment in, the United States.

Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds restrictions on immigration enforcement access to nonpublic areas of specified victim and homeless shelters without a judicial warrant, creating a limited-cooperation/sanctuary-type policy for those facilities. The broad definition of immigration enforcement is part of the restriction but does not independently change enforcement scope. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
