LIMIT DISRUPTIONS IN SCHOOLS

HB 523 would require New Mexico public school administrators to review requests from federal immigration agents with a judicial warrant to enter a school. The bill specifies that school leaders must determine if access is permitted by law before granting entry. It directly affects school superintendents and charter school heads who would need to evaluate such warrant-based access requests. The bill was introduced in 2025 but was postponed indefinitely on June 3, 2025, and has not advanced further. This is a procedural measure focused on school access protocols, not a substantive change to immigration enforcement or school operations.
