Introduced

Summary

Ties federal funding to local cooperation with federal law enforcement. This bill would bar states and localities that restrict officials from assisting federal officers from receiving federal funds meant to benefit people who lack lawful immigration status.

Show full summary
  • Cities and states would be declared ineligible for any Federal funds they plan to use to benefit aliens unlawfully present if the jurisdiction has a law, policy, or practice that stops officials from aiding, backing up, or responding to federal law enforcement. The funding ban specifically targets uses like food, shelter, health care, legal services, and transportation.
  • People without lawful status could see reduced access to these locally delivered services in jurisdictions placed on the list because the covered programs would lose federal money.
  • The Attorney General would publish a list of jurisdictions with these cooperation restrictions within 1 year and then update that list annually.

Limits aid for undocumented residents in some areas

This bill would cut off certain federal funds in places the Attorney General says restrict help to federal law officers. If your state or city is on that list, it would not be able to use federal money to benefit people without lawful status. Blocked uses would include food, shelter, health care, legal services, and transportation. The limits would start in the first fiscal year that begins more than 60 days after enactment. The Attorney General would determine and list these jurisdictions each year, using definitions tied to existing immigration and federal officer laws.
