#TeamJustice & partners are advocating for you to SUPPORT AB937 in this 2021 legislative cycle.
Bill Summary:
AB937 will prevent arrests or assistance in arrests, denial of inmate services or transfers to ICE based on immigration status. The VISION Act would prohibit local and state agencies from conducting immigration arrests and from assisting or facilitating immigration arrests, which includes prohibiting ICE transfers without a federal warrant. This would additionally prohibit state or local agencies or courts from using immigration status as a factor to deny or to recommend denial of probation or participation in any diversion, rehabilitation, mental health program, or placement in a credit-earning program or class, or to determine custodial classification level, to deny mandatory supervision, or to lengthen the portion of supervision served in custody.
