Unaccompanied Minors

DENVER — A state employee has sued Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D), alleging that the governor has ordered state employees to illegally share personal information about sponsors of undocumented minors with federal immigration agents in violation of laws Polis, himself, has signed.

Scott Moss, the Director of the Division of Labor Standards and Statistics in Colorado’s Department of Labor and Employment, filed the lawsuit in Denver District Court on Wednesday, seeking to block Polis from requiring disclosure of personal identifying information (PII) to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in response to an administrative subpoena, not one signed by a judge or issued by a court.
