This market is part of a series of markets inspired by a scroll through Rumble.com. They will be resolved to PROB based on the spirit of the hypothesis (somewhat vibes-based), using evidence posted in comments and own research if necessary.
I will not be trading in those markets.

To say that they're "rolling it out" as if this has been coordinated and schemed is weird, but some states are trying to pass bills that allow this. So maybe.

@ShadowyZephyr wait, bills to allow police departments to employ illegal immigrants? With non-negligible support?

@CodeandSolder Illegal immigrant and non-citizen are not the same thing. You can reside in the US without being a citizen, you just need a green card.
And yes, non-citizen police officers. Although the Illinois bill hasn't passed yet.

@ShadowyZephyr Illegals is in the title though, what's actually happening is normal and boring. I'll count just legal non-citizens for partial points if it becomes widespread enough to count as "rolling out"

@CodeandSolder Yeah - I think the implication is that illegals can slip through their radar. Thinking about it more I doubt that is true.

I bet YES looking at the title on the screenshot you put, not the title of the actual market.

@ShadowyZephyr illegally applying to work as a police officer as an illegal immigrant does not sound like something people would attempt, though I do feel that way about a significant portion of things people do in fact attempt.
I will resolve to >50% if there are multiple reports of an illegal immigrant employed as a police officer arresting somebody though.
The "illegals" part comes from the thumbnail.
