The bill mandates that by January 1, 2026, all law enforcement agencies in Iowa must enter into written memorandums of agreement with the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to participate in immigration programs as outlined in section 287(g) of the federal Immigration and Nationality Act. This participation includes agreements for both the jail enforcement model and the warrant service officer program, ensuring that local law enforcement collaborates with federal immigration authorities.

Additionally, the bill specifies that Code section 25B.2, subsection 3, which typically allows political subdivisions to avoid compliance with state mandates if funding is not provided, will not apply to this Act. This means that political subdivisions will be required to comply with the mandates set forth in the bill, regardless of funding availability.
