Plain-language summary
Beta

This resolution expresses the Kentucky House's encouragement that federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents avoid conducting immigration enforcement actions inside places of worship, schools, and hospitals. It does not create a new state law or carry legal penalties, but rather communicates a position to federal authorities. Because immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility, the resolution is a statement of sentiment rather than a binding requirement. Who it may affect: immigrants, churchgoers, students and school staff, patients and healthcare workers at hospitals and health facilities.
