In Illinois - of course.
A bill that would allow certain immigrants to become police officers in the state of Illinois has been sent to Gov. JB Pritzker’s desk to be signed into law.
House Bill 3751 was sent to the governor on Friday, according to The Center Square.
The measure would circumvent a federal law that prohibits non-U.S. citizens from becoming a police officer.
Illinois’ move would allow any immigrant with legal authorization to work, or who remains in the country under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Act, to apply for the position.
Police departments have had a hard time recruiting officers since the civil unrest that followed in the wake of George Floyd’s murder in Minneapolis in 2020.
During the debates on the Senate floor in May, Sen. Chapin Rose (R-Mahomet) said, “To hand the power to arrest and detain a citizen of this state, or a citizen of any state in the United States, to a noncitizen is a fundamental breach of democracy. It is antithetical to the police power of any state.”
However, Senate President Don Harmon (D-Oak Park) said people from different backgrounds have been in law enforcement for a long time.
“This is about Americans today,” he said. “This isn’t about Irish born versus Mexican born, for instance, this is a much more fundamental question. I would ask you to look into your hearts and look into our history,” ignoring the fact that Irish-born police officers were naturalized U.S. citizens at the time.

On the bright side, bribes are generally cheaper than speeding tickets.

Maybe I could apply. I was thinking I needed a nice stress-free job as I get older.

Since they are also committing crimes it could be a more efficient system.

Except they’re not. They all have legal permission to work in the US.

The article contains this:
Illinois’ move would allow any immigrant with legal authorization to work, or who remains in the country under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Act, to apply for the position.
Prepare to be pwned if you did not read that part.

I was only preparing the forum for the pwnage, by citing the primary source. I was not contradicting you.

Just so long as we don't let illegal immigrants become cops, like we're doing here.
