Virginia Bill To Allow Illegal Immigrants To Become Police Officers & Arrest American Citizens

This bill allows “illegal aliens granted DACA to become police officers” The Black Vote knows it won’t stop there: “I want to know who was responsible for this piece of trash legislation that was gonna tell the migrants at the border, get ready to arrest Americans in the country legally.” “It passed the house. It passed the senate. It made it on to the governor's desk. What the **** is going on here? You couldn't tell us. You couldn't get the word out. So I guess we was going to just have a legal just show up in police uniform, and Americans was just supposed to take it. We are supposed to comply?” More about the bill from FEDERATION FOR AMERICAN IMMIGRATION REFORM: “While Senator McPike and Chief Newsham appear sympathetic to DACA recipients, they seem perfectly comfortable creating a situation in which illegal aliens can enforce U.S. law—and in doing so, can arrest and take into custody U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents. Furthermore, neither has fully explained how DACA beneficiaries can serve as police officers when federal law generally bars illegal aliens from possessing firearms. Representative John Macco (R-Ledgeview) wrote in support of his bill saying, “Simply, it is common-sense legislation that would allow local law enforcement agencies to hire diverse and qualified candidates. Ironically, the legislators pushing these bills talk about how these illegal aliens are “qualified” to become law enforcement officers. But, as mentioned above, illegal aliens are generally barred from possessing firearms. Moreover, to carry out their duties, officers must take an oath of office, which requires them to enforce the law and protect the constitutional rights of all in their community. DACA recipients cannot, in good faith, take this oath because they continuously reside in the United States in violation of the law. And, even if the illegal aliens who benefited from DACA were otherwise law-abiding, their illegal status could impede their efforts to enforce the law. State legislators pushing proposals to allow illegal aliens to become police officers are not only undermining the rule of law but also threatening public safety. The public must be confident that the officers sworn to protect them and uphold the law are upstanding citizens in the community. FAIR is working with state legislators to make sure these bills do not advance and to protect the integrity of law enforcement agencies across the country as we deal with the worst border crisis in history”
