Madam:
Your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs, to which was referred S.B. No. 2911 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE POWER OF ARREST,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to clarify the arrest powers under state law for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, to extend to these agencies the same arrest powers granted to the United States Customs and Border Protection Service and Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from one government entity. Written testimony presented to the Committee may be reviewed on the Legislature's website.
The intent of this measure is to extend arrest powers under state law to those federal agencies that play a critical role in the security of the State.
Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2911, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2911, S.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary and Government Operations.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs,
