USE OF RESOURCES & FED. IMMIGRATION LAW

SB 87 prohibits New Mexico state or local governments from adopting laws, ordinances, rules, or regulations that restrict the use of personnel or resources to assist federal immigration enforcement or interfere with such enforcement. It directly affects counties, cities, and state agencies by preventing them from passing policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities. The key provision bans any local or state measure that would block officials from using staff or funding to support federal immigration enforcement efforts. This bill does not change federal immigration law but aims to remove state-level barriers to federal enforcement coordination.
