HB 1152 North Carolina House · 2025-2026 Session

Protection of Constitutional Rights.

This bill allows individuals injured during civil immigration enforcement to sue the person responsible, even if that person was acting under the law. It removes various legal immunities, such as official or sovereign immunity, that would normally protect defendants in such cases, while permitting courts to award damages and legal fees. Additionally, the legislation funds the creation of a downloadable "Know Your Rights" pamphlet to inform immigrants and citizens about their rights when encountering immigration officers.
