Illinois law allowing non-citizen police may violate 14th Amendment.
.
.
See: Pritzker defends Illinois bill that allows non-citizens to become police officers
From the article:
"HB 3751 was passed by both chambers of the General Assembly earlier this year. The bill’s language says that “individuals who are not citizens, but are legally authorized to work in the United States under federal law” will be allowed to apply for jobs with police departments beginning on Jan. 1, 2024."
"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President . . . "
Our federal Constitution also commands that:
"No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen." Article 1, Section 2, Clause 2
And, Article 1, Section 3, Clause 3. states:
"No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen".
And even the Constitution of the State of Illinois declares: "To be eligible to hold the office of Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Comptroller or Treasurer, a person must be a United States citizen, at least 25 years old, and a resident of this State for the three years preceding his election."
In fact, there is no state constitution which specifically declares eligibility for being governor does not require citizenship. Four or five states (as I recall) are silent on this eligibility question. But all the rest, either directly or indirectly, require citizenship to be a governor.
We also find that the privilege of voting is reserved to citizens, and the Fourteenth Amendment makes a distinction between “citizens” and “person” and forbids any state to enforce any law which abridges the “privileges and immunities” of citizens.
Seems to me Illinois law allowing non-citizens to enjoy the privilege of being a police officer with the power to police and arrest citizens of Illinois, may very well violate the Fourteenth Amendment’s text which forbids any state to enforce any law which abridges the “privileges and immunities” of citizens.
By extending the “privilege” of citizens of Illinois to be police officers to non-citizens, the case can be made that in so doing, the privilege of Illinois’ citizens to be police officers is being diluted, and thus being abridged.

Democrats violate our laws every day!
They all need to be prosecuted and put in prison.
Illegal aliens should not have the "privilege" of jobs, schools, housing, driver's licenses or healthcare either.ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE "BROKEN" OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM

American citizens are being made into second-class residents
Speaking about the Democrat Party Leadership violating our laws every day, the Democrat Party Leadership has recently made Section 8 housing vouchers available to illegal entrant foreign nationals, while American citizens in our nations' inner cities are going homeless and are living on the streets.
American citizens are being turned into second-class residents in their own homeland, while illegal entrant foreign nationals are now benefiting from privileges intended to be for American citizens only.

There is no surer way to weaken, subdue and bring to its knees a prosperous and freedom loving country than by flooding it with deadly drugs, an inflated currency and the poverty stricken, poorly educated, low skilled, diseased, disabled, and criminal populations of other countries.

Hiring non-citizen police violates 14th Amendment's privilege clause.
.
Of course, our domestic enemies don't think hiring non-citizen police violates the 14th Amendment's Privilege Clause. Perhaps that is because I am more creative than the ACLU who has been using the Fourteenth Amendment in a perverted fashion to subjugate our founding principles and destroy the United States from within.
But the Fourteenth Amendment declares “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.”
And, the fact is, being hired by government as a police officer is a "privileged" type of employment, and is confirmed in an Executive Order which dealt with “Security requirements for Government employment” and begins as follows:
"WHEREAS the interests of the national security require that all persons privileged to be employed in the departments and agencies of the Government, shall be reliable, trustworthy, of good conduct and character, and of complete and unswerving loyalty to the United States; and
WHEREAS the American tradition that all persons should receive fair, impartial, and equitable treatment at the hands of the Government requires that all persons seeking the privilege of employment or privileged to be employed in the departments and agencies of the Government be adjudged by mutually consistent and no less than minimum standards and procedures among the departments and agencies governing the employment and retention in employment of persons in the Federal service . . . "
And our Fourteenth Amendment forbids State action which abridges the “privileges” of its citizens.
Consequently, the State of Illinois, by extending the “privilege” of being employed as a police officer to non-citizens, an obvious abridgement of the privilege takes place in that for every non-citizen hired by the State of Illinois as a police officer, there is one less employment opportunity for the citizens of Illinois to be hired as a police officer, thereby creating an abridgment of this privilege for Illinois’ citizens.
So, let the ACLU suck on that!

Illegal aliens and non-citizens should not be allowed to work in any government office. The Governors that allow it should be sued and those government offices defunded and/or shut down until they are fired and deported!

It is sickening how the Democrat Party Leadership in a number of States put the interests of foreign nationals above the interests of American citizens, and it is especially sickening in view of the fact those getting the red- carpet treatment are illegal entrant foreign nationals who have invaded our country.
This action, by the Democrat Party Leadership, fits the very definition of treason.
