HB1105 outlines documentation for verifying immigration status, requires local law enforcement to cooperate with federal authorities, and imposes penalties for non-compliance. It bans “sanctuary” policies, mandates reporting on non-citizen inmates, and requires honoring immigration detainer notices. The bill also sets jail intake standards, authorizes DNA collection from certain convicted individuals, and mandates quarterly reports on foreign-born inmates, ensuring state and local agencies collaborate with federal authorities to enforce immigration laws and enhance public safety.
The Georgia State Senate passed HB1105 on March 21, 2024 by a vote of 34 to 19. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because this bill is vital for maintaining the rule of law and preserving the integrity of our immigration system, which are crucial to protecting national sovereignty. Uncontrolled immigration is used by those seeking to fundamentally transform the United States by deliberately altering the country’s demographics, which in turn could significantly impact the nation’s voting patterns.
