Newsom Signs Bills Curbing For-Profit Detention and Immigration Agents
Original: Gov. Newsom Signs Bills Reining In For-Profit Detention Corporations and Federal Immigration Agents
California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed legislation restricting private, for-profit detention corporations and imposing limits on federal immigration agents operating in the state. The package was announced by the California Immigrant Policy Center, an advocacy group backing the measures. The bills position California in direct opposition to federal immigration enforcement practices and the private prison industry, and are expected to draw legal and political pushback.
Why now: California is directly confronting federal immigration enforcement and private detention companies through new state law.
