HF 2407: A bill for an act relating to civil remedies for deprivation of constitutional rights; immigration enforcement limitations in hospitals, licensed child care centers, and public institutions of higher education; and protections against civil arrest at courthouses; and including effective date provisions.

HF 2407 creates new legal protections related to immigration enforcement in specific settings. It requires hospitals to adopt policies verifying law enforcement officers' identities and limiting disclosure of patient health information during immigration actions, with deadlines for implementation by January 2027. The bill also prohibits licensed child care centers from disclosing a child's or family member's immigration status, except where required by federal law. Additionally, it establishes a civil legal claim for damages if immigration enforcement violates constitutional rights, with courts considering factors like whether officers wore facial coverings or identified themselves. The bill directly affects hospitals, child care centers, and law enforcement agencies operating in these locations.
