Prohibits enforcement of federal immigration laws within 200 feet of polling places and related locations, so less immigration enforcement in those areas.
No person shall perform or conspire to perform any act for the purpose of, or in furtherance of, the enforcement of federal immigration laws while within two hundred feet of any polling place, county elections office, location designated by a county elections officer as an official polling place, or location at which ballots are being counted, canvassed, audited, certified, or recounted.

Limits the exceptions to the prohibition on carrying firearms in a sensitive location by removing the concealed-carry exemption for certain federal officers at polling places if they violate the immigration-enforcement ban, so narrower carry rights in that context.
provided, however, that the exemption provided by this paragraph shall not apply to current or retired federal law enforcement officers present at any location being used as a polling place for purposes of acting in violation of section 17-158 of the election law;
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill creates a new prohibition on immigration enforcement activities within 200 feet of polling places and related election sites (new Election Law § 17-158), makes violations a misdemeanor, allows poll-closing extensions for such disruptions, and narrows the firearms carry exemption for federal officers at polls if they are there to violate that prohibition. These provisions substantively address immigration-enforcement (by limiting state-tolerated federal enforcement near polls) and firearms/carry (by limiting an exception to sensitive-location carry bans). No provisions address firearms
