AI Summary
This bill, known as the PROTECT Immigration Act of 2025, aims to end a federal program that allows state and local law enforcement officers to assist in immigration enforcement, such as investigating, apprehending, and detaining individuals, under agreements with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The bill amends Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which is the existing law that authorizes these partnerships, by removing the provisions that permit such cooperation and clarifying that immigration enforcement is exclusively a federal government responsibility, carried out by immigration officers and authorized employees of the Department of Homeland Security, with specific exceptions outlined in other laws.
