HB424Relating to the enforcement of federal immigration law under agreements between certain sheriffs and the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Direction
Immigration enforcementstate federal cooperationAI label
Requires agreements with ICE to include a provision barring sheriffs and their personnel from targeting children for immigration enforcement in or on child protected areas (such as schools, health facilities, and courthouses), so less immigration enforcement in those locations.
An agreement entered into under Section 753.051 must include a provision prohibiting the sheriff, and any officer, employee, or, as applicable, contractor of the sheriff's department, from targeting a child for the enforcement of federal immigration law while the child is in or on a child protected area.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a mandatory restriction to sheriff-ICE agreements under existing Section 753.051, prohibiting enforcement actions targeting children in or on a broad list of 'child protected areas.' This limits the scope of immigration enforcement in practice without banning cooperation outright.
