A couple of quick observations on questions that may arise when shared with Mr. Venturella. Perhaps

the document originator(s) have responses?

Hope helpful.

Please find attached a brief summary document that highlights SC references in the Secretarys written

testimony, opening statements, and hearing question and answer. There are some interesting pieces on the use

of dangerous and what SC does/how it deploys.

I understand A/S Morton goes up to House Approps Homeland Subcom on March 11. Dont know about Senate,

but will circle back when I do.

All,

Sorry for the short notice. However, wanted to ensure that tomorrow and Thursday's Secretary Napolitano

Fiscal Year 2010 budget hearings were on your radars.

I'll be watching and listening whenever possible; but, I definitely welcome some support in this area. The

hearings are likely to be long as they'll cover the Department's entire budget request. I'd be surprised, however,

if Secure Communities does not come up in all of them.

The schedule is as follows:

Wednesday, February 24, at 9:30am - Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee

WEBCAST

Wednesday, February 24, at 2:00pm - Senate Appropriations Committee, Homeland Security

Subcommittee WEBCAST

Thursday, February 25, at 10:30am - House Appropriations Committee, Homeland Security

Subcommittee WEBCAST from here:

Thursday, February 25, at 2:00pm - House Homeland Security Committee WEBCAST from here:

Please let me know if you're inclined to watch.

Thanks!

We ask only that you honor our detainers when we file them against a removable

criminal alien in your custody. We in turn commit to responding promptly when

contacted to accept custody of that alien.

5. Exchange of fingerprint information is nothing newFederal immigration authorities have been receiving rap sheet kickbacks on arrestedaliens for decades. What is fundamentally different about SC is speed and accuracy,

both made possible by technological advances and the use of biometrics. Under the old

system, rapsheet kickbacks took weeks or months for our field offices to receive, often

with the consequence that the individual had posted bond and fled or otherwise become

unlocatable. Using the biometric interoperability capacities made possible by linkages

between local and state LEA systems, CJIS, and federal immigration biometric andbiographic databases, we can identify a removable criminal alien who has been arrested

by your agency within hours, giving us the opportunity to file a detainer while the alien

is still in custody, and to take effective action once criminal justice proceedings are

complete. Selective use of such detainers on the worst offenders helps close the

revolving door of the criminal justice system by which dangerous criminal aliens havein the past ended up back in the streets of your community.

6. Biometric interoperability under SC is a part of the larger CJIS Next Generation

Identification (NGI) initiative

CJIS is phasing in deployment of a host of new biometric interoperability capabilities

to state and local LEAs. Deployment of these enhanced capacities will be completed

nationwide by 2013. SC is just one the first of these many additional information

streams being made available to assist LEAs at every level, to fully and accuratelyidentify suspects in their custody. Instead of just flipping the switch in 2013, signing

on to SC now is an opportunity for your officers to see the future and become

comfortable with it, before multiple-menu NGI activation by CJIS.

7. What you choose to do with Immigration Alien Responses (IARs) is up to you

When biometric information generates a hit in federal immigration databases, the

resulting information is passed back, through CJIS and the SIB, to the arresting agency.

That information is returned as an IAR. As we have stated, providing you thatinformation does not entail any expectation of action on your part. What is more, as we

have already noted, IARs are only the first of many additional informational messages

you can expect to receive under CJIS NGI.

If you do not wish to receive the IAR, you may work with your SIB to turn it off at the

appropriate ORI(s). We would caution that in making a decision not to receive IARinformation, your officers may find themselves deprived of substantive information

relating to an arrested subjects true identity, place of origin, and other pertinent data of

significant law enforcement value.

8. Interoperability works with your existing booking processSince Interoperability leverages existing communication channels, no major changes

are required, and no substantive expenses are incurred, for your agency to benefit from

this capability.

IX. Other Issues and Concerns that May Arise

There appear to be at least three major points of concern. They are expressed here without

regard to any priority order, along with suggested responses:

1. Doubts about, or disagreement with, the 287(g) program

Response You need to know that Secure Communities is fundamentally different thanthe Section 287(g) cross-designation program. SC asks no police officer to make

decisions about, or act upon, an arrestees citizenship or immigration status. In this

way, LEAs are free to do their job; ICE is free to do its job.

2. Future immigration reform legislation might provide individuals a path toward

legal status

Response Even in the event that immigration reform legislation is passed, it is unlikely

that aliens convicted of any but the most insignificant crimes will be eligible to apply

for legalized status.

3. We are aware of concern by NGOs that the initiative might result in racial

profiling by police officers

Response Allegations of racial profiling are taken seriously, and mechanisms exist forany alien who believes that he or she has been a victim of profiling to report the alleged

misconduct to the Department of Homeland Securitys Office of Inspector General. Inmost LEAs, including yours, there are also parallel mechanisms to report inappropriate

conduct or activity on the part of police officers, as well as policies and training in

place to prevent racial profiling. We have seen no instances of profiling in any locationwhere interoperability has been deployed, although we remain vigilant against the

possibility.

There is no empirical basis to believe that Secure Communities would encourage or

result in such inappropriate conduct. To the contrary, it is entirely possible thatlocations where interoperability has been deployed would be more likely to detect such

a practice on the part of their officers by monitoring on a routine basis the responses

(IARs) received from the LESC to determine inappropriate patterns and anomaliesinstead of the one-to-one relationship that should exist between transmissions and

responses.

We also believe that establishing a baseline of arrest statistics based on nationality, race

and ethnicity prior to implementing SC, and periodically comparing the statistics post-

implementation to assure there are no substantial discrepancies, will continue to affirmthe fundamental fairness in the way the program is being carried out.

X. Chicago Specific Leadership Information

1. AdministrationRahm Emanuel is the White House Chief of Staff. Prior to joining the

Obama Administration, Mr. Emanuel was a Member of Congress representing the fifth

district of Illinois, and was Chairman of the House Democratic Caucus.

2. City of Chicago

a. The present Mayor is Richard M. Daley, a Democrat first elected in 1989. Mr.

Daley is the son of Richard J. Daley, also a long-time mayor of Chicago.b. The Superintendant of Police since 2008 is Jody P. Weiss, a former FBI agent,

who took the position after his predecessor stepped down amid community

tensions and allegations of endemic brutality. Mr. Weiss is only the second chief

of police ever selected from outside CPDs ranks. Although Mr. Weisss attitudetoward SC is unknown, it can be presumed that having been a federal law

enforcement officer, he will quickly comprehend the benefits and mechanics of

the program, although he will of course be obliged to follow the course laid out by

his political leaders in the city.

3. Cook County

a. The President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners is Todd H. Stroger; aDemocrat, like Mr. Daley.

b. The Cook County Sheriff is Thomas Dart, who is one of the longest-serving of

incumbent Illinois sheriffs. To date, he has exhibited neither support nor

enthusiasm for SC, though whether this reflects his personal views or a

recognition of local politics is a matter of conjecture.
