The Georgia House passed a bill Thursday that would make it possible to arrest immigrants on the suspicion that they are residing in the state illegally.

Additionally, HB 1105 would allow local authorities to detain immigrants for deportation should they find they are not legal residents. Should any officer, jailer, or sheriff not report when a detainee does not have proper legal documentation, they could “be subject to the withholding of state funding or state administered federal funding” per the bill. The legislation was drafted by six Republicans and passed 97-74. Only one Democratic member voted for the measure.
