OR SB277

Amends Oregon's sanctuary laws (ORS 181A.823 and 181A.826) to create a new exception allowing state and local agencies to share information with federal immigration authorities when necessary to effect international extraditions of persons charged with or convicted of crimes in Oregon who have outstanding arrest warrants.

Public bodies must still decline and document federal immigration enforcement requests, but communications related to international extraditions are now exempt from this requirement alongside judicial subpoenas.

Maintains existing prohibitions on using public resources for immigration enforcement, denying services based on immigration status, and collecting immigration status information except in specified circumstances.

Declared an emergency measure, taking effect immediately upon passage rather than the standard 90-day waiting period.

Passed Senate April 1, 2025 and House May 5, 2025.
