Bill > AB1896

This bill would disqualify individuals from holding public employment, including peace officer positions, if they were previously employed by an entity engaged in immigration enforcement between January 20, 2025, and January 20, 2029, with certain exceptions for those employed by specific California local or state law enforcement agencies. The bill defines "immigration enforcement" broadly to include efforts to investigate or enforce federal civil or criminal immigration laws that penalize a person's presence, entry, or employment in the United States. It also amends existing laws to add this disqualification criterion to the standards for peace officers and to the general criteria for refusing to examine or certify candidates for public employment, aiming to align public service with the state's values of community safety and inclusivity.
