The bill text amends federal immigration law to require sharing of immigration, custody, release, location, and transfer information; bar local policies that materially restrict sharing; authorize DOJ civil enforcement; and tie grant eligibility to compliance.

The legislative text spells out the exact information-sharing, detention, and penalty provisions promised in the claim.

Carter said he cast a key vote for the Secure America Act, which fully funds Border Patrol and ICE through 2029, showing he continued pushing aggressive immigration enforcement during the lookback window.

Within the last 30 days, Carter remained publicly aligned with stronger federal immigration enforcement, but this did not itself enact the specific sanctuary-jurisdiction policy.

Assessments

unresolved unknown A for effort

Carter materially advanced the promise by introducing the No Sanctuary Cities Act on February 9, 2026, with the core elements claimed: mandatory state and local information sharing, up to 48-hour detention on request, protections for cooperating officers, and penalties for jurisdictions that block cooperation. But as of June 11, 2026, the record here shows only introduction of that bill and later support for the separate Secure America Act funding ICE and Border Patrol through 2029; it does not show that Carter's specific sanctuary-jurisdiction policy was enacted into federal law. Because the exact promised outcome has not yet been delivered, but Carter has made a serious and directly relevant legislative push while still in office, the best judgment is unresolved rather than delivered or never.
