Immigration Data Sharing
Summary
Arizona SB1520 requires state agencies to share data with federal immigration authorities upon request. The bill passed the Senate 16-12 and House Committee of the Whole with a 'Do Pass' recommendation, and includes delayed repeal provisions affecting Title 41 of state government code.
What changed
Arizona SB1520 mandates that state agencies share data with federal immigration enforcement authorities upon request. The bill passed the Senate and House after committee reviews, with the House Public Safety and Law Enforcement Committee approving 7-5 and Senate MABS Committee approving 4-3. The legislation includes a 'Strike Everything' amendment and provisions for delayed repeal of certain state government provisions.
State agencies subject to this law must review their current data-sharing practices and develop protocols for responding to federal immigration data requests. Agencies should coordinate with legal counsel and the Attorney General's office to ensure compliance with the new data-sharing mandate.
What to do next
- Review existing data-sharing policies and agreements with federal immigration authorities
- Coordinate with agency legal counsel to assess obligations under SB1520
- Monitor for bill signing and any implementing regulations from state agencies
