This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by adding new provisions to Chapter IV, specifically Section 1h, which prohibits law enforcement officers from stopping, detaining, or arresting individuals based solely on personal characteristics such as race, language, or perceived sexual orientation. Additionally, it restricts officers from entering a dwelling based on a federal agency administrative warrant. The bill defines key terms, including "immigrant" and "law enforcement officer," to clarify the scope of these prohibitions.
Furthermore, the bill modifies Section 15d, which outlines the conditions under which federal law enforcement officers may enforce state law. It specifies that these officers must be authorized to arrest individuals for federal violations and carry firearms, while also ensuring they do not violate the new restrictions in Section 1h. The bill maintains that federal officers have the same privileges as state peace officers when they meet these conditions, but it also clarifies that the state or local governments are not liable for actions taken by federal officers under this section.
