Engrossed
Senate
Keyword matches: ["immigration"]
Summary
This bill aimed to increase cooperation between New Hampshire state and local authorities and federal immigration agencies. Had it passed, it would likely have led to heightened immigration enforcement within the state, potentially resulting in more detentions and deportations of undocumented immigrants and fostering distrust within immigrant communities. However, the bill was ultimately voted Inexpedient to Legislate and defeated in the House.
