Why 3/5: Establishes new operational requirements for higher education and optional notification procedures for K-12 schools regarding immigration enforcement.
This bill authorizes K-12 school boards to notify parents and staff about immigration enforcement presence and requires public colleges to adopt policies for warrant-based access to nonpublic areas. It also designates schools and public higher education institutions as protected areas where certain federal civil immigration enforcement activities are prohibited.
