Federal officers exercising certain federal immigration authority prohibition wearing face coverings

Summary

The bill makes it illegal for United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers who are conducting public immigration enforcement activities—such as patrols, stops, arrests, or checkpoint inspections—to wear non‑medical face coverings like masks, hoods, or balaclavas. An officer may only wear such a covering if it is needed to protect against hazardous environmental conditions. Violations would be charged as a misdemeanor.
