summary

This resolution directs the UC Berkeley Police Department (UCPD) to affirm its commitment to non-cooperation with federal immigration enforcement agencies, explicitly defining what constitutes "cooperation." It calls for an annual review and report by the Office of Legal Affairs on interactions with these agencies, along with annual trainings for university personnel to ensure awareness of sanctuary policies and student rights. This measure aims to protect undocumented and mixed-status students, reducing anxiety and upholding UC Berkeley's longstanding sanctuary values.
