It is not in the job description of clerics to be in law enforcement.

I agree, it is not their job to enforce law.

But they are obliged, as citizens, to follow the laws of the land (per what the Catechism states), and that means the current laws that are on the books.

Night night, Sink.

A law that interferes with the ability of ministers to actually minister is a law that ought to be ignored.

The Senate Judiciary Committee recognized that right away and voted, unanimously, to eliminate the provision.
