Summary

UPDATE: HS 1 for HB 368 passed the House on Tuesday, June 16, 2026 and will now be delivered to the Senate for consideration.

HS 1 for HB 368 reduces law enforcement's cooperation with immigration officials by limiting when they honor detainer requests. A detainer request is an administrative request from ICE to hold an individual beyond their scheduled release or notify ICE prior to their release. This legislation would prohibit law enforcement from detaining or extending the detention of any person based solely upon an immigration detainer or civil immigration warrant, and provides exceptions for violent felonies, domestic violence, sex offenses, and repeat DUIs.
