Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to public safety; modifying certain trespass offenses to require a warrant signed by a judicial officer for immigration enforcement; prohibiting detention of persons subject to civil immigration detainers issued by the federal government; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 609.605, subdivisions 1, 2, 4, 4a; proposing coding for new law in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 629.

AI Summary

This bill modifies existing trespass laws to require immigration enforcement officers to obtain a warrant signed by a judicial officer, meaning a judge, justice, or a clerk of court authorized to issue warrants, and to have probable cause to believe the individual they are seeking is on the premises before entering private property, schools, or boarding school buses for civil immigration enforcement purposes. Additionally, the bill prohibits state and local law enforcement officers, referred to as peace officers and jailers, from detaining individuals solely based on a "civil immigration warrant," which is defined as a document issued by federal immigration authorities that is not signed by a judge or justice, to prevent individuals from being held in local jails based on such federal requests.
