Why the model tagged it this way: The bill repeals a state law (Chapter 753, Government Code) that mandated agreements between certain sheriffs and ICE for immigration enforcement and eliminated the associated grant program to fund those agreements, while authorizing termination of existing agreements; this reduces state-mandated local cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
