What A 4123 does, verified January 8, 2026

The bill aims to prevent schools, child day cares, day care centers, and community-based organizations that primarily support children under 18 from serving as shelters for migrants. No funds allocated for humanitarian aid, including short-term shelter services, can be used to support migrant adults in these settings. The ban on migrant adult sheltering in these settings takes effect immediately, with the new provision being deemed effective as of April 1, 2022.
