Abstract
In this Resolution, Enactment No. 70-2004, the City Council of the City of Albuquerque opposes the enactment of the CLEAR Act and HSEA and any other legislation encouraging or compelling local law enforcement to enforce federal civil immigration laws. Additionally, the City reaffirms its commitment to civil rights and equal access to all city services including police protection regardless of immigration status and that no municipal resources will be used to identify and apprehend persons solely based on their immigration status.
