It is important for us to do this and important for us to keep reminding the American people that there are things that can be done. that should be done by the Federal Government in order to try and protect them and do what we should be doing to live up to our responsibilities under the Constitution. One of the bills today is of particular interest to me. It is the State and Local Law Enforcement Cooperation Act. and it talks about what we need to do and the authority of the State and local law enforcement to voluntarily investigate. identify. apprehend. arrest. detain. and transfer to Federal custody aliens in the U.S. in order to assist in the enforcement of the immigration laws. Let me tell you how important this. Just yesterday it was reported in Colorado. another event of one of hundreds that are around the country of a similar nature. where someone who was in the country illegally comes in contact with the local police.
