HB 5600 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE TRUST ACT.

HB 5600, titled "AN ACT CONCERNING THE TRUST ACT," repeals Public Acts 19-20 and 19-23. The bill establishes a new process requiring local law enforcement to share information with federal immigration authorities about undocumented immigrants convicted of felonies or violent crimes. This directly affects undocumented immigrants with such convictions and local law enforcement agencies that must now communicate this information. The key provision replaces existing law to enhance public safety through improved coordination between state and federal authorities on these specific cases. The bill does not alter immigration enforcement authority but changes information-sharing protocols for a defined criminal subset.
