This resolution (HR 83) urges Illinois to repeal the TRUST Act, a law that restricts local police from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. The TRUST Act prohibits police from asking about immigration status during routine stops, detaining individuals solely based on immigration status, sharing information with ICE, or entering agreements to detain people for immigration violations. The resolution argues these restrictions hinder law enforcement cooperation, risk losing federal funding, and reduce community safety by limiting police effectiveness. As a non-binding resolution, it does not change law but formally requests the state government to seek repeal.
