Local governments that limit sharing immigration info would lose federal funds for certain benefits.
This bill would stop local governments, called "sanctuary jurisdictions," from getting federal money they use to help people living in the U.S. without legal status. This means services like food, shelter, and healthcare for these individuals would no longer be paid for by these federal funds in those areas.
Today, states and local governments can have policies that limit sharing immigration information or not complying with federal requests. They can still receive federal funds that they use to help people living in the U.S. without legal status. If this bill becomes law, these "sanctuary jurisdictions" would become ineligible for those specific federal funds. Also, the Department of Homeland Security would have to report yearly on which jurisdictions are not complying with federal requests. The first report would be due within one year of the bill becoming law.
