Protecting Sensitive Locations Act

This bill would ban immigration enforcement actions within 1,000 feet of certain sensitive places unless there is an emergency, like an immediate risk of death or violence. These sensitive places include hospitals, schools, places of worship, courthouses, polling places, child care centers, and offices that help people like abuse victims or pregnant women. If immigration officers break this rule, any information they collected cannot be used in court to deport someone, and the affected person can ask to have their deportation case thrown out. The ban applies to both federal and state officials carrying out immigration enforcement, and immigration agencies would have to report to Congress each year about any enforcement actions taken at these locations.
