This bill mandates that law enforcement agencies provide public notice of any planned federal immigration checkpoints. Specifically, when a state, county, or municipal police department or law enforcement agency is informed by a federal agency of an intent to conduct an immigration checkpoint, it is required to notify the public within 24 hours of the scheduled checkpoint or as soon as practical. The notice must include the date, municipality, and geographical area of the checkpoint, if known. The agencies are instructed to disseminate this information through various media resources, which may include government agency websites, social media, press conferences, press releases, radio and television coverage, as well as posters and flyers.
The fiscal note attached to the bill, as amended, indicates that there will be no financial impact on state, county, or local revenue or expenditures as a result of this bill. The Department of Safety has confirmed that the implementation of this bill will not require additional funding or cause changes in financial commitments for the state, county, or local governments. The bill is set to take effect upon its passage. There are no insertions or deletions indicated in the provided text that would alter existing law.
