law enforcement agencies; immigration enforcement

HB 2657 prohibits Arizona local law enforcement agencies (including police departments, sheriff's offices, and the state police) from entering into agreements with federal immigration authorities to exercise federal civil immigration enforcement powers or detain individuals for immigration violations. The bill specifically bans agreements related to 8 U.S.C. §1357(g) authority and housing federal immigration detainees. It does not affect enforcement of court warrants or other federal legal obligations. This bill directly impacts how Arizona's local law enforcement interacts with federal immigration enforcement protocols.
