AI Summary

This bill, titled "Childcare center facilities access limitation," proposes to add a new section to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 142B, which will limit access to licensed or certified child care centers for certain federal agents. Specifically, it states that directors, staff, substitutes, and unsupervised volunteers at these centers cannot allow federal agents employed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, including those from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, to enter the facility for any reason unless these agents present valid identification, a written statement of purpose, and a valid judicial warrant, and receive approval from the child care center's license holder. Even if these requirements are met, access for these federal agents must be restricted to areas where children are not present, unless otherwise required by state or federal law or to administer a state or federally supported child care program. This new provision will take effect the day after it is finally enacted.
