California AB2721 adds Section 17211 to the Business and Professions Code, requiring hotel operators to post a notice if they know U.S. Customs and Border Protection or Immigration and Customs Enforcement will be on the premises during a guest's reservation. The notice must be displayed 48 hours before the reservation or within an hour of learning about the presence. Failure to comply results in a $2,500 civil penalty per violation.
