The proposed bill, known as the "county law enforcement protection act," aims to prevent counties in Michigan from enacting or enforcing any laws, ordinances, policies, or rules that restrict peace officers or local officials from communicating or cooperating with federal officials regarding the immigration status of individuals. The bill defines "county" to include various county entities and mandates that any existing laws that conflict with this act must be brought into compliance within 60 days of its effective date.

Furthermore, the bill establishes enforcement mechanisms, allowing residents to take legal action against counties that violate the act, either by filing a lawsuit in circuit court or by submitting a complaint to the attorney general. The attorney general is also empowered to investigate complaints and take legal action against non-compliant counties. If a court finds that a county's law or policy violates the act, it can issue an injunction, require amendments or repeals, and award damages and attorney fees to the complainant. Conversely, if the court rules in favor of the county, it may award costs and attorney fees to the county.
