California AB1537 prohibits peace officers from engaging in secondary employment involving immigration enforcement activities.

California AB1537 amends the Penal Code to prohibit peace officers from engaging in secondary employment that involves immigration enforcement activities. This includes arresting, detaining, transporting, or deporting individuals. The bill aims to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure that local and state law enforcement officers maintain public trust and act in compliance with state and federal laws. Peace officers can still take on other secondary employment as private security guards or patrolmen, provided it is approved by their principal employer and they wear their police uniform.
