The hearing room reached its maximum capacity as the Senate Civil Rights, Judiciary and Public Safety Committee continued testimony on bills aimed at limiting immigration enforcement's abilities in Michigan, like by outlawing masked officers and prohibiting public bodies from releasing personal information without court-issued warrants.

Heated exchanges erupted in the Senate Civil Rights, Judiciary and Public Safety Committee Thursday between Sen. Jim Runestad (R-White Lake) and supporters of bills to prohibit immigration enforcement in hospitals, schools and places of worship, as well as outlawing officers from wearing masks or disguises.
