Enrolled and presented to the Governor at 3 p.m.
Summary
The bill adds state peace officers to the group of law‑enforcement officers who may not wear opaque facial coverings while on duty, and it broadens the definition of a law‑enforcement agency to include state agencies. Those agencies must adopt and publicly post a written policy on facial‑covering use by Jan. 1, 2027, outlining purpose, restrictions and narrow exemptions. The measure aims to increase transparency and public trust while allowing limited exceptions for safety, undercover work and certain wildlife‑law enforcement.
