AI Summary

This bill adds a new chapter to Idaho law that prohibits political subdivisions (such as cities or counties) from enacting any ordinances or policies that limit or prohibit law enforcement officers, local officials, or government employees from communicating with federal immigration authorities or complying with detainer requests from federal immigration officers. The bill allows residents to bring civil lawsuits to enjoin such ordinances or policies, and it provides for significant financial penalties and the withholding of sales and use tax revenue from political subdivisions that violate these provisions. The bill also allows victims of certain crimes committed by convicted aliens to bring civil actions against political subdivisions that violate the law's provisions on detainer requests.
