AG Brown released updated guidance for state and local law enforcement outlining their role in federal immigration enforcement. The updated guidance incorporates the requirements of the Community Trust Act, which became State law in May 2026, and other recently enacted laws. 

“Maryland has made clear through the Community Trust Act that our law enforcement agencies have one objective: keeping all Marylanders safe, including members of our immigrant communities. This guidance gives every law enforcement agency in the State the clear direction they need to follow the law, keep our communities safe, and protect and serve all Marylanders.” -AG Brown
