Relating to: prohibitions concerning state or local government assistance with federal immigration enforcement.

SB 493 prohibits state and local government agencies, including law enforcement, from detaining individuals solely because they are not lawfully present in the United States. The bill also bans state and local entities from entering into or continuing agreements with the federal government for immigration enforcement under 8 USC 1357(g). However, it does not prevent cooperation with federal authorities when required by a valid judicial warrant. This law directly affects all state agencies and local governmental units in the state.
