Bill > HR3000

This bill, known as the Stop Dangerous Sanctuary Cities Act, aims to ensure that state and local law enforcement can cooperate with federal officials to protect communities from violent criminals and suspected terrorists who are illegally present in the United States. The key provisions of the bill include: 1. Authorizing state and local law enforcement officers to act as agents of the Department of Homeland Security when complying with a federal immigration detainer, granting them the same authority as federal officers. It also provides legal protections for state and local officials who comply with these detainers. 2. Defining "sanctuary jurisdictions" as states or localities that prohibit or restrict the sharing of information about an individual's immigration status or compliance with federal immigration detainers. 3. Making sanctuary jurisdictions ineligible for certain federal grants, including those from the Economic Development Administration and Community Development Block Grants, unless they comply with the bill's requirements. The bill is intended to encourage cooperation between federal, state, and local law enforcement to address public safety concerns related to illegal immigration.
