action postponed indefinitely
Summary
The bill makes it a misdemeanor for a peace officer to conceal their face, badge, name, or employer during a search, seizure, or service of process, and a fourth‑degree felony if done with intent to deceive or intimidate. It also bars non‑officer bail‑bond agents from representing themselves as sworn officers, wearing government‑style uniforms or badges, and from using their position for immigration enforcement without a warrant. The goal is to improve transparency and public trust in law‑enforcement interactions.
