Bill overview
This bill, known as the Stop Dangerous Sanctuary Cities Act, aims to restrict federal funding to state and local governments that have policies limiting cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Specifically, it defines ‘sanctuary jurisdiction’ as any area that restricts information sharing with federal authorities regarding immigration status or complies with Department of Homeland Security detainer requests. The bill also seeks to strengthen the legal standing of local law enforcement when complying with these detainer requests and limits legal liability for such actions. Finally, it restricts certain federal grants, including those from the Economic Development Administration and Community Development Block Grants, to areas designated as sanctuary jurisdictions.
