AI Summary

This bill prohibits cities, towns, and counties in Wyoming from enacting policies that restrict local officials or employees from communicating or cooperating with federal immigration officials or law enforcement officers regarding a person's immigration status. The bill defines key terms such as "federal officials," "immigration status information," and "policy." If the governor determines that a city, town, or county has violated this prohibition, the state will withhold all state and state-administered federal funding to that locality, unless otherwise provided by law. The bill takes effect immediately upon completion of the necessary legislative process.
