LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTAB 937, as amended, Carrillo. Immigration enforcement.Existing law, the California Values Act, prohibits a California law enforcement agency from providing a persons release date, or responding to a request for notification of a release date, unless that information is available to the public, and prohibits the transfer of an individual to immigration authorities, as specified, unless the person has been convicted of specified crimes or arrested for a serious or violent felony.This bill would prohibit any state or local agency from arresting or assisting with the arrest, confinement, detention, transfer, interrogation, or deportation of an individual for an immigration enforcement purpose, except as specified. The bill 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. The bill would authorize a person to bring an action for equitable or declaratory relief in a court of competent jurisdiction against a state or local agency or state or local official that violates these provisions, and would make those agencies or officials liable for actual and general damages and reasonable attorneys fees.Existing law requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to implement and maintain procedures to identify inmates serving terms in state prison who are undocumented felons subject to deportation. Existing law requires the department to annually report to the Legislature the number of persons identified as undocumented aliens, as specified.This bill would repeal those provisions.Existing law requires all basic information stored in state or local criminal offender record information systems to be recorded in the form of specified standard data elements, including, among other things, place of birth.This bill would no longer require that information to include place of birth.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) Californias punitive carceral system unjustly and disproportionately harms Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and Asian and Pacific Islander American communities. In recent years, with the passing of SB 260, SB 261, SB 1437, AB 1812, which amended paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code, and Proposition 47, the Legislature and California voters have demonstrated a strong commitment to reforming our criminal justice system and ending mass incarceration.(b) Despite these reforms, when Californias jails and prisons voluntarily and unnecessarily transfer immigrant and refugee community members eligible for release from state or local custody to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for immigration detention and deportation purposes, they subject these community members to double punishment and further trauma. Immigrant community members can be incarcerated by ICE, often for prolonged periods and with no right to bail, and deported, permanently banishing them from the country, from their families, their homes, their livelihoods and all that makes life worth living. Ng Fung Ho v. White, 259 U.S. 276, 284 (1922). The Supreme Court has repeatedly acknowledged that for many people deportation is a more severe penalty than any jail sentence. See, e.g., Lee v. U.S., 137 S.Ct. 1958, 1968 (2017); Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356, 364 (2010).(c) Community members transferred to ICE are refugees, lawful permanent residents, people who entered the United States as children, parents, caretakers, essential workers, or are otherwise valued California residents. California should not subject these community members to a second, double punishment, and disregard their record of rehabilitation, stable reentry plans, and community support, purely because they are refugees or immigrants. Ending ICE transfers in California is a reflection of the states commitment to ending racial injustice and mass incarceration.(d) Moreover, incarceration and ICE transfers are harmful to public health. Countless studies document negative health impacts of incarceration in jails, prisons, and ICE detention centers. People who have been incarcerated have worse health outcomes and, overall, have lower life expectancies. Given the racial inequities plaguing the states carceral system, the significant health risks posed by incarceration and transfers weigh heavily on Californias Black, Latinx, and Asian and Pacific Islander American communities.(e) The Constitutions of the United States and the State of California protect all persons present within our borders from unreasonable searches and seizures, from deprivations of life, liberty or property without due process of law, from being deprived of equal protection under the law, including from being targeted on the basis of race or ethnicity. This act embodies and protects these values by ensuring that all Californians, including refugees and immigrants, are not torn from their communities when they are eligible for release from state or local custody simply because they are not citizens of the United States.(f) No federal statutes affirmatively require local or state governments to assist ICE with immigration enforcement. While one federal statute specifically addresses this issue, 8 U.S.C. 1373, it only passively restricts local and state governments from prohibiting the sharing of only information related to immigration status or citizenship. Further, 8 U.S.C. 1373 has been found by several federal courts to be unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled that the Tenth Amendment prohibits the federal government from affirmatively compelling a state to enact laws and policies, and also prevents the federal government from prohibiting a state or local jurisdiction from enacting new laws or policies. See Murphy v. Natl Collegiate Athletic Assn, 138 S. Ct. 1461, 1477 (2018). Applying this rule from the Supreme Court, a number of federal district courts have held that 8 U.S.C. 1373 is unconstitutional under the Tenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals acknowledged this fact when it upheld the Values Act against a preemption challenge in US v. California (9th Cir. 2019) 921 F.3d 865, cert. denied, US v. California (2020) 141 S.Ct. 124. It is the intent of the VISION Act to be consistent with federal law.(g) To ensure an equitable opportunity for noncarceral, rehabilitative and diversionary dispositions or custody status to all persons involved in the criminal legal system, irrespective of immigration status, it is the intent of the Legislature to abrogate case law that is inconsistent with this value, including, but not limited to, People v. Sanchez (1987) 190 Cal.App.3d 224; People v. Cisneros (2000) 84 Cal.App.4th 352; People v. Espinoza (2003) 107 Cal.App.4th 1069; People v.

## The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) Californias punitive carceral system unjustly and disproportionately harms Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and Asian and Pacific Islander American communities. In recent years, with the passing of SB 260, SB 261, SB 1437, AB 1812, which amended paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code, and Proposition 47, the Legislature and California voters have demonstrated a strong commitment to reforming our criminal justice system and ending mass incarceration.(b) Despite these reforms, when Californias jails and prisons voluntarily and unnecessarily transfer immigrant and refugee community members eligible for release from state or local custody to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for immigration detention and deportation purposes, they subject these community members to double punishment and further trauma. Immigrant community members can be incarcerated by ICE, often for prolonged periods and with no right to bail, and deported, permanently banishing them from the country, from their families, their homes, their livelihoods and all that makes life worth living. Ng Fung Ho v. White, 259 U.S. 276, 284 (1922). The Supreme Court has repeatedly acknowledged that for many people deportation is a more severe penalty than any jail sentence. See, e.g., Lee v. U.S., 137 S.Ct. 1958, 1968 (2017); Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356, 364 (2010).(c) Community members transferred to ICE are refugees, lawful permanent residents, people who entered the United States as children, parents, caretakers, essential workers, or are otherwise valued California residents. California should not subject these community members to a second, double punishment, and disregard their record of rehabilitation, stable reentry plans, and community support, purely because they are refugees or immigrants. Ending ICE transfers in California is a reflection of the states commitment to ending racial injustice and mass incarceration.(d) Moreover, incarceration and ICE transfers are harmful to public health. Countless studies document negative health impacts of incarceration in jails, prisons, and ICE detention centers. People who have been incarcerated have worse health outcomes and, overall, have lower life expectancies. Given the racial inequities plaguing the states carceral system, the significant health risks posed by incarceration and transfers weigh heavily on Californias Black, Latinx, and Asian and Pacific Islander American communities.(e) The Constitutions of the United States and the State of California protect all persons present within our borders from unreasonable searches and seizures, from deprivations of life, liberty or property without due process of law, from being deprived of equal protection under the law, including from being targeted on the basis of race or ethnicity. This act embodies and protects these values by ensuring that all Californians, including refugees and immigrants, are not torn from their communities when they are eligible for release from state or local custody simply because they are not citizens of the United States.(f) No federal statutes affirmatively require local or state governments to assist ICE with immigration enforcement. While one federal statute specifically addresses this issue, 8 U.S.C. 1373, it only passively restricts local and state governments from prohibiting the sharing of only information related to immigration status or citizenship. Further, 8 U.S.C. 1373 has been found by several federal courts to be unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled that the Tenth Amendment prohibits the federal government from affirmatively compelling a state to enact laws and policies, and also prevents the federal government from prohibiting a state or local jurisdiction from enacting new laws or policies. See Murphy v. Natl Collegiate Athletic Assn, 138 S. Ct. 1461, 1477 (2018). Applying this rule from the Supreme Court, a number of federal district courts have held that 8 U.S.C. 1373 is unconstitutional under the Tenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals acknowledged this fact when it upheld the Values Act against a preemption challenge in US v. California (9th Cir. 2019) 921 F.3d 865, cert. denied, US v. California (2020) 141 S.Ct. 124. It is the intent of the VISION Act to be consistent with federal law.(g) To ensure an equitable opportunity for noncarceral, rehabilitative and diversionary dispositions or custody status to all persons involved in the criminal legal system, irrespective of immigration status, it is the intent of the Legislature to abrogate case law that is inconsistent with this value, including, but not limited to, People v. Sanchez (1987) 190 Cal.App.3d 224; People v. Cisneros (2000) 84 Cal.App.4th 352; People v. Espinoza (2003) 107 Cal.App.4th 1069; People v. Arce (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 613.(h) This act shall be known, and may be cited as, the Voiding Inequality and Seeking Inclusion for Our Immigrant Neighbors (VISION) Act.
