Alert! CLEAR Act would encourage local law enforcement, deny

HR 3494, introduced by Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), would implement a system for identifying and removing violent criminal illegal immigrants and would deny certain federal funds to "sanctuary cities" that protect violent criminal aliens.

The Charlie Norwood CLEAR Act of 2007 (named after the late Congressman from Georgia) would provide additional training and funding to local police to help enforce current immigration law.

Allowing the thousands of local law enforcement officers to apprehend criminal aliens they encounter during the performance of their jobs will greatly enhance our security. We cannot allow our country's vast interior to become a free zone for aliens who slip past our borders. This legislation would:

* Require DHS to take an alien into custody within 48 hours
* Affirm that state and local law enforcement officials have existing authority to assist in enforcing immigration law during the course of their routine duties.
* Deny State Criminal Alien Assistance Program funding to "sanctuary cities" that refuse to assist with immigration enforcement.

This came via email alert from CAPS (Californians for Population Stabilization) but I'm sure capwiz must have it for all states.

identifying and removing violent criminal illegal immigrants and would deny certain federal funds to "sanctuary cities" that protect violent criminal aliens.


That would include all states. I don't think there is one that does not have criminal illegal's. I just don't want that bill bundled in with a reform bill.

Re: 1. Sorry, but I am not willing to settle for the ole' "something is better than nothing" government/OBL propaganda. We should be identifying and removing ALL illegal aliens..period!

Re: 2. See re: 1.

Yes to the Clear Act
NO to the Dream Act
NO to the Strive Act
am I missing any?

IF that passes my who area will be without Federal funds. That's Pelosi's, Boxer, Feinstein, and Mike Thompson's district and others.


All of them are betraying the American Citizen.

Thanks for posting this. I'll ask my Rep to co-sponsor this.

Does this bill have sponsors? If not we'll try to get some.

The thing that worries me on anything that says it will help round up criminal aliens is that it is at the same time... how do I say it...justify or reinforce the over looking of the bulk of the illegal invaders.

We already have laws that are not being enforced that give every police officer in this once great nation the duty to arrest EVERY ILLEGAL ALIEN.

They took an oath of office to do exactly that. If they do not they should be held accountable!!!!!!


Don't people even on these message boards even get it. To Back CLEAR act you will make it clear that they do not have to uphold their oaths of office. They will be able to do as they damn well please until they suck us into passing another law which they will not implement except when something is cutting into the criminals in businesses profits in some way.

It is already against the law to enter this country illegally!!!!!

It is already against the law to aid and abet an illegal alien!!!!!

We aready have nearly around a million police offficers that have taken oaths of office to enforce those laws!!!!!

TITLE 8 > CHAPTER 12 > SUBCHAPTER II > Part VIII > § 1324

Snip...

(c) Authority to arrest
No officer or person shall have authority to make any arrests for a violation of any provision of this section except officers and employees of the Service designated by the Attorney General, either individually or as a member of a class, and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws.

and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws.

and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws.

and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws.





Back the darn thing if you want to. It will help the Federal Reserve with their world domination. Maybe someday they will even buy us off instead of bend us over and make us squeal like a pig.

Maybe it is the best thing to do. I don't know how I would vote for sure but I think you can see where I'm coming from.

Rockfish, Maybe the Dems don't hear from the opposing side enough, maybe we should let them hear our feelings when we are trying to drum it into the Republicans dead brain. :lol: I think they are not getting the treatment they deserve!

Mine are all Dems and they hear from me everyday! :twisted:

Same here; and so frustrating!

Mine are Dems too. I think sometimes since they hear from me on a lot of issues that they tune me out so to speak. Kind've like my husband does at times.....lol


Since you can't speak to them directly you wonder if they actually get those messages we leave. Besides they are all for the illegal aliens. Every letter I get back, months later is always the same story.....we can deport them all, they provide us many services, etc.

I'm writing back once again, hitting every point they made, with my own and trying to back up my points very well, so they don't they I am just tossing garbage in and garbage out.

I know with my reps its a losing cause, look at Dodd, he thinks its cool to speak spanish in a debate.........what a loser.

Never give up we have managed to change the tune of quite a few, some of them are a little (maybe alot ) more thick headed than others, Maybe they just are not getting enough attention (more people) from average Joe citizen!!

Could be, especially since one has presidential aspirations........haha

I think it would be good for them to get bombarded from others, I wrote and called all over the country to try and defeat amnesty, I won't quit now, but I do think they need other people to remind them what USA citizens want. I crossed party lines and I wrote thank you notes (well, email thanks!)

I even thanked Senator Byrd about reminding them about their manners and where they were and who they were. I loved that public spanking!

So did I, Byrd is great LMAO!!
During the Amnesty Bill I faxed Kennedy first thing every morning while waiting for my coffee with an ALIPAC fax about Kennedy and the 1986 amnesty, I was LMAO he would get on the floor of the senate and his face would turn red and he'd say " I did not vote for that 1986 amnesty bill" I laughed my self silly, thought he was going to have a stroke :roll: but I kept sending them.

Besides I am not a Republican any more I am now an Independant :lol:

Broun introduces the "Charlie Norwood CLEAR Act of 2007

Sept 13, 2007
Congressman Paul Broun (R-GA) has joined with Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) to introduce the "Charlie Norwood Clear Law Enforcement for Criminal Alien Removal (CLEAR) Act of 2007." The "Charlie Norwood CLEAR Act of 2007" enhances local, state, and federal efforts to enforce immigration law, and is modeled on legislation introduced by former Rep. Charlie Norwood (R-GA) in the 108th, 109th and 110th Congresses.

"Charlie Norwood understood the problems caused by illegal immigration, and was widely respected for his leadership on the issue," Broun said. "I am proud to join with my colleague from Tennessee to introduce the 'Charlie Norwood CLEAR Act of 2007.' Passing this important bill would strengthen efforts to enforce federal immigration law and would be a fitting addition to Rep. Norwood's legacy."

The "Charlie Norwood CLEAR Act of 2007" contains several key provisions including:

1) Clear authority for local agencies to enforce immigration law;

2) Improved information sharing between local and federal agencies;

3) Increased federal detention space;

4) The denial of State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) funding to "sanctuary cities"; and

5) The inclusion of immigration violators in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Database.

The bill has been designated as H.R. 3494.
