flag Colorado advances bill to strengthen immigrant protections with stricter detention oversight and data limits.

flag Colorado lawmakers advanced HB 1276, a bill strengthening immigrant protections by expanding state oversight of detention centers, banning public transit from transporting immigrants for detention, and limiting data sharing with federal immigration authorities. flag The measure requires detention centers to pay for inspections, submit annual health data, and obtain judicial warrants for ICE access to secure areas. flag It also imposes civil penalties for violations and holds state agencies liable for data breaches. flag Lawmakers rejected a separate bill that would have required police to intervene in alleged ICE excessive force incidents, citing concerns over federal authority and law enforcement opposition. flag The legislation reflects growing state-level efforts to safeguard immigrant communities amid rising fears over federal enforcement actions.
