Immigration enforcementstate federal cooperationAI label
Limits schools' ability to share student or parent immigration status information with federal immigration authorities unless required by law and documented, while explicitly preserving compliance with 8 U.S.C. §§ 1373 and 1644.
No school or school personnel shall: (a) Threaten to disclose any information about the actual or perceived citizenship or immigration status of a student or a person associated with such student to any other person or entity, including any immigration authorities.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill enacts a broad sanctuary-style policy for public schools by barring denial of education based on immigration status, prohibiting most inquiries or disclosures of status to immigration authorities, requiring a judicial warrant for any immigration enforcement access to school grounds or functions, mandating internal review procedures that limit cooperation, and creating enforcement via the state attorney general. These provisions substantively restrict immigration enforcement in educational settings; no other listed topics are addressed.
