华盛顿州法官裁定亚当斯县违反《让华盛顿工作法》 向移民局提供在押人员信息被禁

华盛顿州斯波坎县高等法院法官 Marla Polin 13日裁定,亚当斯县警长办公室与联邦移民官员非法合作,违反了州《让华盛顿工作法》,这是州法院首次对这部2019年通过的法律作出解释和适用。法院同时发布永久禁令,禁止该县继续从事相关违法行为,并要求该县依照总检察长办公室的示范指引修订政策、对工作人员进行培训。法院认定,亚当斯县警长办公室每天向联邦移民当局发送新收押人员名单,分享在押人员的预计释放时间,在未事先取得当事人书面同意的情况下允许联邦移民官员就非刑事事项约谈在押人员,且未按法律要求制定合规政策。华盛顿州总检察长尼克·布朗的办公室于2025年3月提起诉讼,指控警长办公室非法协助在移民局拘留所实施逮捕并长期向联邦移民官员提供数百名华盛顿居民的机密个人信息。布朗表示,这一裁决维护了所有华盛顿居民的权利与尊严,地方执法机构不能被联邦政府征用。
Washington Judge Rules Adams County Violated Keep Washington Working Act; County Barred from Sharing Detainee Information with ICE
Judge Marla Polin of the Spokane County Superior Court in Washington ruled on the 13th that the Adams County Sheriff's Office had unlawfully cooperated with federal immigration officers in violation of the state's Keep Washington Working Act, the first time a state court has interpreted and applied the law passed in 2019. The court also issued a permanent injunction barring the county from continuing the unlawful conduct and requiring it to revise its policies in line with the Attorney General's Office model guidance and train its staff. The court found that the Adams County Sheriff's Office sent federal immigration authorities a daily list of newly booked detainees, shared detainees' expected release times, allowed federal immigration officers to interview detainees on non-criminal matters without first obtaining the detainees' written consent, and failed to adopt a compliance policy as required by law. The office of Washington Attorney General Nick Brown filed suit in March 2025, alleging that the sheriff's office had unlawfully assisted in arrests at ICE detention facilities and provided federal immigration officers with confidential personal information of hundreds of Washington residents over a long period. Brown said the ruling upholds the rights and dignity of all Washington residents and that local law enforcement agencies cannot be commandeered by the federal government.
