Final answer:

The USA PATRIOT Act does not clearly define the role of local police in the fight against terrorism.

Step-by-step explanation:

The USA PATRIOT Act does not clearly define the role of local police in the fight against terrorism. While the act expanded the powers of the federal government to legally use surveillance against individuals suspected of involvement in terrorism, it does not specifically assign local police to checking identification of any suspected illegal immigrants.
