This bill proposes significant updates to current Arizona statutes regarding the enforcement of federal immigration laws. It mandates that the Governor, Attorney General, and all counties, cities, and towns in Arizona must enforce, administer, and cooperate with federal actions, orders, and programs related to immigration laws until January 19, 2029. The bill includes new sections, specifically Section 9-500.52 and Section 11-269.30, which will be repealed after the specified date. Additionally, it introduces a statement of legislative findings that emphasizes the public safety crisis attributed to immigration issues, as identified by voters in Proposition 314. The bill also makes several deletions and amendments to existing statutes. Notably, it removes the previous requirement for the Governor and Attorney General to enforce federal immigration laws after January 19, 2029, and it updates the language throughout to reflect the new mandates. The bill aims to ensure that Arizona's executive branch fully cooperates with federal immigration enforcement, aligning state actions with federal directives until the specified expiration date.
