S.3744

Federal SB3744 amends the U.S. Code to prohibit state and local officials from interfering with immigration law enforcement.

Federal SB3744 amends chapter 93 of title 18, United States Code, to prohibit state and local officials from obstructing immigration laws. It makes it unlawful for state or local officials to interfere with federal immigration enforcement, including by concealing, harboring, or shielding aliens, restricting federal officers' access to detention facilities, or failing to provide notice to federal authorities about the release of an alien. Violations can result in fines and imprisonment, with harsher penalties for cases where the alien commits serious bodily injury or death after release.
