HB 1430 Citizenship of arrestee; if accused is not committed to jail, arresting officer to ascertain.
Introduced by: David B. Albo | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Arresting officer to ascertain citizenship of arrestee. Supplements the existing law that requires sheriffs to make a query into legal presence when a person is "taken into custody" at a jail. This bill expands such inquiries by requiring inquiries of everyone arrested, and requires that an arresting officer inquire of every arrestee whether he (i) was born in a country other than the United States and (ii) is a citizen of a country other than the United States.
