South Dakota will prohibit state agencies and local governments from blocking their employees from reporting someone's immigration status to federal immigration officials or from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. The law also prevents local jurisdictions from granting unlawful immigrants any form of legal status within South Dakota, and protects law enforcement officers from discipline if they refuse to follow policies that would violate these rules.
