AI Summary

This bill, titled "Prohibit certain contracts to provide detention facilities federal immigration purposes," aims to prevent local governments in Minnesota from entering into agreements with the federal government to house individuals detained solely due to civil violations of federal immigration law. The bill defines "federal government" broadly to include any U.S. government agency or entity working on its behalf, and "local government" as any county, city, or joint powers entity composed of cities or counties. Essentially, it makes any such contract void, regardless of when it was signed, and will take effect the day after it is officially enacted into law.
