Bill overview
This bill, titled the "Local Government Sanctuary Policy Prohibition Act," prohibits Michigan local governments – including counties, cities, and their related bodies – from enacting or enforcing policies that limit communication or cooperation between local officials and federal officials regarding an individual’s immigration status. The act establishes a process for compliance and provides legal remedies for residents who believe local policies violate the law, including potential civil fines for officials involved in enacting or enforcing those policies.
