AI Summary
This bill amends existing Oklahoma law to require law enforcement personnel to comply with immigration detainer requests issued by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). It directs sheriffs, jailers, and prison keepers to (1) comply with and fulfill any ICE detainer requests, (2) inform individuals being held pursuant to an ICE detainer, and (3) allow ICE reasonable access to their detention facilities. The bill provides an exemption to this duty for individuals who can prove they are U.S. citizens. It also defines "immigration detainer request" and expands the requirement to all law enforcement agencies, not just sheriffs and their deputies. The bill will take effect on November 1, 2021.
