HF 5062 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Crime of trespass in a sensitive space established.

This bill creates a new misdemeanor offense for entering specific locations like schools, places of worship, or hospitals for the purpose of civil immigration enforcement without a warrant. It directly affects immigration officers and other individuals who might attempt to conduct civil immigration checks in these designated "sensitive spaces." The law requires a warrant signed by a judicial officer and a reasonable belief that the target is present before such entry is permitted. If someone violates this rule, they could be charged with a misdemeanor. The legislation aims to protect these communities by restricting unauthorized civil immigration actions within their boundaries.
