Relating to the enforcement of state and federal immigration laws by state agencies, local entities, and peace officers; creating a civil penalty.

HB 2566 requires Texas peace officers to verify a person's immigration status within 48 hours if the person fails to provide acceptable identification (like a driver's license, passport, or DHS document) during a lawful detention for a suspected crime. It limits officers' ability to inquire about immigration status to specific circumstances: only when necessary for investigating the current crime or assisting victims/witnesses with federal protective visas. The bill creates civil penalties for violations of these requirements and applies to state agencies, local entities, and peace officers enforcing state or federal immigration laws. This legislation directly affects law enforcement procedures during criminal investigations and individuals stopped for suspected offenses who cannot produce standard ID.
