New Illinois law allows illegal aliens to become police officers.
American police officers can't arrest and jail illegal aliens at the border.
But illegal aliens can now arrest and jail Americans in America.
A new bill allowing eligible non-U.S. citizens in Illinois to become police officers was signed into law by Governor J. B. Pritzker on Friday, amid criticism from some Republican lawmakers.
The measure—House Bill 3751—successfully passed the Democratic-controlled state House and the state Senate before being signed into law by the Democratic governor last week. The bill, which will come into force on January 1, 2024, allows eligible immigrants who are not in possession of U.S. citizenship to join law enforcement in Illinois—something that federal laws currently forbid.
The legislation has angered conservative lawmakers like Colorado Republican Lauren Boebert, who have attacked HB 3751 saying it allows illegal immigrants to become police officers in the traditionally blue state.
