H.R.1061

Protecting Sensitive Locations Act aims to limit immigration enforcement actions at sensitive locations and clarify officers' powers.

The Protecting Sensitive Locations Act amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to restrict immigration enforcement actions within 1,000 feet of sensitive locations, such as schools, healthcare facilities, and places of worship, unless exigent circumstances exist. Exigent circumstances include imminent risk of death, violence, or physical harm, immediate arrest or pursuit of an individual posing a danger, direct threats to national security, and the imminent risk of destruction of evidence material to an ongoing criminal case.
