A09589Protects persons receiving care, employed, or otherwise present at a hospital from immigration arrests; prohibits federal immigration officers acting within the scope of their employment from entering hospitals unless supported by a judicial warrant or order; defines judicial warrant or order.
Bars federal immigration officers from entering hospitals without a judicial warrant and protects people in hospitals from civil arrest by immigration authorities, so less immigration enforcement in hospital settings.
A hospital shall be prohibited from allowing federal immigration enforcement officers acting within the scope of their employment onto the premises of the hospital unless such federal immigration enforcement officers provide a valid judicial warrant or order.

Immigration enforcementstate federal cooperationAI label
Prohibits hospitals from allowing ICE officers on premises without a judicial warrant and requires training on handling ICE requests, limiting state/local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement in healthcare facilities.
The commissioner shall promulgate all rules and regulations necessary to ensure compliance with the provisions of this section, including, but not limited to, training for hospital personnel on handling immigration and customs enforcement (ICE) requests.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill creates sanctuary-like protections in hospitals by barring immigration enforcement actions and entries without a judicial warrant, directly limiting state/local facilitation of federal immigration enforcement.
