Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.

Bill 119 HR 1061, also known as the "Protecting Sensitive Locations Act," aims to amend section 287 of the Immigration and Nationality Act in order to restrict immigration enforcement actions at certain sensitive locations. The bill seeks to clarify the powers of immigration officers when it comes to conducting enforcement actions at these sensitive locations.

The bill defines sensitive locations as places such as schools, hospitals, places of worship, and public demonstrations. It prohibits immigration officers from carrying out enforcement actions at these locations unless there are exigent circumstances or prior approval has been obtained from a supervisor.

Additionally, the bill outlines the responsibilities of immigration officers when conducting enforcement actions at sensitive locations, emphasizing the importance of respecting the rights and privacy of individuals present at these locations. Overall, the goal of Bill 119 HR 1061 is to ensure that sensitive locations remain safe spaces for all individuals, regardless of their immigration status, and to provide clarity and guidance to immigration officers when it comes to enforcing immigration laws in these settings.
