Congressional FindingsPub. L. 104–208, div. C, title I, § 108(a), Sept. 30, 1996, 110 Stat. 3009–557, provided that: “The Congress finds as follows: “(1) Immigration checkpoints are an important component of the national strategy to prevent illegal immigration. “(2) Individuals fleeing immigration checkpoints and leading law enforcement officials on high speed vehicle chases endanger law enforcement officers, innocent bystanders, and the fleeing individuals themselves. “(3) The pursuit of suspects fleeing immigration checkpoints is complicated by overlapping jurisdiction among Federal, State, and local law enforcement officers.”
