Newsom Signs Immigration Bills to Bolster State Protections
- On Tuesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a package of immigration bills aimed at disrupting California's deportation program, limiting enforcement tactics, and opening federal agents to civil liability.
- These laws respond to an escalation in the Trump deportation program, which has swept up more than 38,000 people in California since February 2025, straining relations between state and federal enforcement agencies.
- New measures include Senate Bill 747, the so-called No Kings Act, allowing civil rights lawsuits against federal agents, while Assembly Bill 1806 requires state prosecutors to investigate shootings by immigration agents.
- Other laws, such as Senate Bill 942, establish a bill of rights for detainees, though dozens of law enforcement agencies argue the legislation will promote "second-guessing of a public employee's actions made in good faith."
- The legislation faces potential legal hurdles, as an 1890 Supreme Court case forbids states from prosecuting federal officers acting in their duties, setting the stage for expected court battles over these new mandates.
