Bill overview
This bill, known as the "Imprisoning Illegal Aliens Act," would allow New Jersey state and local entities, as well as private detention facilities, to enter into agreements to detain noncitizens. Currently, state and local governments are prohibited from doing so. The bill aims to allow the state to participate in federal efforts to address immigration enforcement, potentially generating revenue from housing detainees. It amends existing law to permit these agreements.
