Tell Governor Braun: Veto Anti-Immigrant SB 76

Our state is stronger because immigrant Hoosiers are part of it. SB 76 would move Indiana further into federal immigration enforcement in ways that threaten due process and change how people experience everyday life, from school and work to health care and local government.

This sweeping bill would:

  • Push public institutions, including local police, government, and colleges, toward increased cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
  • Force local jails to treat ICE detainers as mandatory holds rather than requests, raising serious constitutional concerns.
  • Require reporting on noncitizens receiving certain public benefits and mandates that hospitals report what form of ID Medicaid patients used at admission, likely leading to delays in seeking care.
  • Encourage employers to expand the use of E-Verify, which is known to result in mismatched records and could lead to lost opportunities for people who are legally eligible to work.

SB 76 would strain local systems, erode trust in vital institutions, and create fear in places where people should feel safe. Take action now: Add your name and urge Governor Braun to veto SB 76.

SB 76 would expand ICE cooperation in Indiana and weaken due process. It pulls schools, hospitals, local government, and law enforcement deeper into federal immigration enforcement and increases the risk of detention through mandatory ICE detainers.
