That's not the language of the bill -- I repeat: if all this authorized was a check of documents when someone is stopped by police for actually doing something illegal, there'd be zero to near-zero concern.

You still won't say what will constitute the police having "reasonable suspicion" that a given person is illegal because the scope of their new authority is not limited to people "nabbed" on other criminal offenses by the language of the statute.
