HB 2249 prohibits U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from entering or conducting law enforcement activities in healthcare facilities, physician offices, or shelters within Tennessee. It defines these locations to include hospitals, mental health institutions, licensed medical offices, and shelters providing temporary housing for homeless individuals or domestic violence survivors. The bill directly restricts ICE operations in these settings by amending Tennessee state law to create this prohibition, without altering existing federal immigration authority.
