Bill > HB1317

This bill repeals the Illinois TRUST Act, which was a law designed to limit local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities. The bill makes corresponding changes to two other state laws: the Illinois Identification Card Act and the Illinois Vehicle Code. Specifically, the bill removes references to the TRUST Act's definition of "immigration agent" in both laws and replaces it with a more specific definition that refers directly to agents from federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and similar agencies. The changes maintain existing restrictions on sharing personal information with immigration agents, but update the language to remove direct references to the now-repealed TRUST Act. These amendments mean that state agencies like the Secretary of State's office will still be required to protect individuals' personal information and only release such information in limited circumstances, such as with a court order, judicial warrant, or specific subpoena. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
