Short Description
Through the Protect Safety of Individuals Who Are Immigrants Act, HB26-1276, the Colorado legislature authorized state public health inspectors to conduct unannounced inspections (at least four times a year) of facilities detaining individuals for civil immigration proceedings, required POST Board training for peace officers on immigration-detainer law, directed the Attorney General to issue a policy on protecting personal identifying information, and extended civil liability to employers whose staff disclose someone’s immigration status to federal authorities.
