Plain-English summary
Stopping Lawless Actions of Politicians (SLAP) Act of 2017
This bill amends the federal criminal code to impose criminal penalties—a fine, a prison term of up to five years, or both—on a state or local official who has custody of an individual and knowingly ignores a request from the federal government to take custody of the individual, if the requesting authority has designated that individual as a violator of immigration laws.
