Blocks federal money for states and cities that impede federal immigration officers.
This bill would stop federal money from going to states and local governments that arrest, detain, prosecute, interfere with, or obstruct federal immigration officers. It aims to prevent federal officers from being arrested or prosecuted while enforcing immigration laws. If passed, these governments would lose out on federal funding starting in the government's budget year 2026.
Today, states and local governments can arrest, detain, prosecute, interfere with, or obstruct federal immigration officers for actions taken during their duties without losing federal financial assistance. If this bill becomes law, these governments would become ineligible for federal financial assistance starting in the government's budget year 2026, and those funds would be given to other eligible jurisdictions.
