Bars health facilities from granting immigration officers access to their premises without a judicial warrant, so less immigration enforcement in those facilities.
A health facility may not grant a federal immigration officer or peace officer engaged in immigration-related investigation or enforcement duties access to the premises of the facility without a judicial warrant.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a new chapter to the Health and Safety Code that prohibits certain health facilities from allowing immigration officers access without a judicial warrant, which limits state/local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.
