Sec. 2-519. Purpose and intent

The purpose of this Division is to improve community security by ensuring that immigrant and otherwise vulnerable communities can engage with County agencies, including public safety agencies, with assurance that such engagement will not be used to assist in civil immigration enforcement or a federal discriminatory practice. Further, this Division is intended to ensure that the constitutional rights of immigrant County residents are not violated and that County benefits and services are provided to residents regardless of country birth or immigration status.
