relative to requirements for law enforcement officers assisting in immigration enforcement.
Inexpedient to Legislate, RC 16Y-8N, MA === BILL KILLED ===; 03/05/2026; SJ 5
Summary
The bill would force any state or local officer working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement under the 287(g) program to clearly show their name or badge number, keep their body‑worn camera active, and refrain from wearing facial coverings. Agencies would have to set up discipline for officers who break these rules, and all complaints would be sent to the state Department of Justice’s civil‑rights unit. The measure was intended to increase transparency in immigration enforcement but did not pass.
