Bill Analysis
Bill Summary: HRES 398 (118th Congress)
HRES 398 is a resolution that outlines the procedural considerations for three legislative proposals aimed at enhancing law enforcement support and addressing specific criminal offenses.
Consideration of H.R. 2494: This bill proposes to classify the assault of a law enforcement officer as a deportable offense under immigration law. If enacted, this would empower federal authorities to initiate deportation proceedings against non-citizens convicted of assaulting law enforcement personnel, thereby increasing legal repercussions for such actions.
Consideration of H.R. 3091: This legislation allows federal law enforcement officers to purchase retired service weapons directly from their agencies. This measure is intended to provide officers with the opportunity to acquire their service firearms, potentially enhancing their personal safety and preparedness after retirement.
Consideration of H. Con. Res. 40: This concurrent resolution expresses support for local law enforcement officers and condemns movements aimed at defunding or dismantling local law enforcement agencies. It serves as a formal statement of congressional backing for law enforcement and aims to bolster community safety and security.
Funding/Authorities: HRES 398 itself does not allocate funding but sets the stage for the consideration of the aforementioned bills, which may have financial implications depending on their final provisions and enactment.
Programs/Agencies Affected: The bills primarily impact federal law enforcement agencies, including the Department of Justice and local police departments, by altering policies related to law enforcement conduct and officer equipment.
Beneficiaries/Regulated Parties: The primary beneficiaries of these legislative actions are law enforcement officers and agencies, while non-citizens who assault officers may face increased legal consequences.
Key Timelines: The latest action on HRES 398 was the motion to reconsider, which was laid on the table and agreed to without objection, indicating a procedural step towards advancing the associated bills for further consideration.
