Stage: Filed · step 1 of 6
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends Government Code §752.053(c) to add domestic violence shelters to the list of locations (alongside places of worship) where local entities may bar their employees from assisting or cooperating with federal immigration officers. This expands sanctuary-like protections and restricts state/local immigration enforcement in those specific settings. The deletion of prior limiting language reinforces the expansion of non-cooperation authority.
