Requires DC to comply with federal immigration enforcement policies and restrictions.
The problem
District of Columbia has policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities. This creates tension between local and federal immigration enforcement efforts.
The proposal
The bill mandates that DC must comply with federal immigration laws and directives. It restricts DC's ability to set its own immigration enforcement policies independently.
The impact
DC residents, immigrants, local law enforcement, and federal agencies are affected. Changes how local police interact with immigration authorities and enforcement procedures.
Creates consistent immigration enforcement across federal and local levels. May improve coordination between DC police and federal immigration authorities. Reduces conflicting policies.
Ensures local jurisdictions follow federal immigration law. Strengthens federal government's ability to enforce immigration policy uniformly. Clarifies roles of local and federal agencies.
Increased cooperation with federal authorities may help identify individuals wanted for crimes. Could improve information sharing between agencies. May enhance security coordination.
Limits DC's self-governance and ability to set local policies. Reduces local government power to decide enforcement priorities. May create conflicts between local and federal values.
Immigrant communities may distrust local police if forced to cooperate with immigration enforcement. Could discourage immigrants from reporting crimes or cooperating with DC police. May reduce public safety.
DC may need funding to implement new federal compliance requirements. Creates administrative burden on local agencies. Unclear how enforcement changes will be resourced.
May raise federalism and states' rights concerns about federal overreach. Questions about federal power to mandate local immigration enforcement. Could face legal challenges.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
