IV 110th CONGRESS 1st Session H. CON. RES. 37 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES January 18, 2007 Mr. Tancredo submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary CONCURRENT RESOLUTION Expressing the sense of Congress with regard to pardoning Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean.

Whereas Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean protect America’s border; Whereas the charges brought against Agents Ramos and Compean are unprecedented and ill-conceived; Whereas the Government’s case is almost solely reliant on the testimony of Aldrete—an illegal alien drug smuggler—a man committed to hurting America’s youth by increasing the availability of drugs; Whereas the Department of Justice prioritized finding Aldrete and offering him immunity from his actions; Whereas the Department of Justice opposed allowing Agents Ramos and Compean to remain free on bail while the appeals process moves forward; and Whereas agents Ramos and Compean have reported to Federal prison: Now, therefore, be it

That it is the sense of Congress that the President should swiftly and unconditionally pardon Agents Ramos and Compean.
