AI Summary
This bill would require federal immigration officers to wear clear, easy-to-see agency labels during enforcement actions. The labels must be big and not covered by gear, so people can tell which agency the officers work for during things like patrols, raids, pickups, or serving warrants.
Key points
- Who is affected: Officers from Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and other officials deputized to do immigration enforcement.
- What changes: During an enforcement action, officers must display bold, visible identification of their agency that is at least 12 inches by 6 inches on the front or back of their uniform, and it cannot be covered by armor or accessories.
- When: Applies during any “time of action,” including patrols, raids, pickups, and serving warrants.
In everyday life, this means if immigration officers are operating in your community, their uniforms must clearly show which agency they’re from, making it easier for people to identify them and understand who is taking action.
