Nicholas Schwaderer, HB 522 would also ‘prohibit state cooperation with federal officials’ who try to enforce the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The lone no vote was cast by Democrat Bob Mehlhoff. HB 522 previously passed the House Judiciary Committeeunanimously. The bill now heads to the state senate for approval.”
