Summary

The bill forbids law‑enforcement officers in North Carolina from wearing facial coverings that hide their identity, with exceptions for undercover work, tactical safety gear, identity protection during prosecution, and health‑related requirements. It also requires officers to display their agency name on uniforms and to give their name or badge number when asked. The goal is to increase transparency and public trust while still allowing safety‑critical exceptions.
