HF 144 was introduced in the Minnesota House, authorizing immigrant worker enterprise zones, requiring law enforcement agencies to comply with federal immigration detainers, and appropriating money. The bill received its first reading and was referred to the State Government Finance and Policy committee on February 10, 2025.
Constitutional basis: Introduced bill, no floor action; compelling local compliance with federal civil detainers enters contested warrantless-detention and federal-state commandeering territory.
