Bill > AB1627

This bill disqualifies individuals from serving as peace officers if they were employed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) between September 1, 2025, and January 20, 2029, or by the Alabama or Georgia Departments of Corrections between January 1, 2020, and January 1, 2026, and requires background investigations for peace officer applicants to include inquiries into such prior employment. Furthermore, the bill prohibits individuals with this prior employment history from being hired as teachers, principals, superintendents, chancellors, or other administrators in any California school district, charter school, county office of education, community college district, the University of California, or the California State University, and mandates that the Department of Education conduct background investigations for these educational positions that include checking for this specific prior employment. The bill also asserts that these provisions are a matter of statewide concern and apply to all cities, including charter cities, and outlines procedures for state reimbursement of any mandated costs to local agencies and school districts.
