United StatesICE would face funding limits on access to personal disaster records
ICE would face limits on using federal money to obtain personal information collected by nongovernment groups responding to U.S. natural disasters, with a court-warrant exception.
What it does
ICE could not use federal money to obtain personal information collected by nongovernment groups for U.S. natural disaster response. Groups could share it if ICE obtains a court-issued warrant.
Argument forThe funding limit could help protect disaster survivors’ personal information from ICE requests that lack a court warrant.
Argument againstGetting a court warrant could delay ICE’s federally funded access to disaster response records, even when groups are willing to share them.
More detail
ICE would be barred from using federal money to obtain the covered personal information. The rule would cover identifying information collected by nongovernment groups in response to U.S. natural disasters that cause or may cause substantial property damage or personal injury. A nongovernment group could provide the information if ICE obtains a court-issued warrant for it.
