Contracts to provide detention facilities for federal immigration purposes prohibited.

This bill prohibits Minnesota local governments from entering into contracts with the federal government to provide detention facilities for people held in custody for civil immigration violations. The law applies to counties, cities, and joint powers entities, making any such agreements void regardless of when they were signed. By banning these contracts, the legislation prevents local jurisdictions from being used to house individuals detained under federal immigration law. The bill takes effect immediately upon final enactment.
