No Secret Police Act

This bill requires law enforcement officers to identify themselves by name, badge, and agency when making an arrest, and to provide the legal authority under which they are acting. It bans disguises and face coverings that conceal an officer’s identity, with narrow exceptions for medical or tactical necessity. And crucially, it imposes real consequences: violating the law is a felony offense, with fines up to $100,000.
If people wearing ski masks and tactical gear with no visible identification swarmed your workplace to take your coworkers away in unmarked vehicles – would you be able to tell the difference between federal law enforcement and a kidnapping? What if they took your family member or friend – how could you find or contact them, or figure out what kind of lawyer to call, without knowing who those agents were?
We've seen that exact scene play out in immigration raids across the country – and it's about to get worse. Congress has voted to give an unprecedented $170 billion more to the Trump administration for immigration enforcement. More money means more raids – and more raids means more unidentified federal law enforcement intimidating and in some cases terrorizing our communities. We should not have to live in fear of masked, armed agents on our streets.
