Florida lawmakers are weighing multiple immigration bills this session. While enforcement proposals dominate, a new VISIBLE Act would require police to clearly identify themselves, aiming to reduce harassment and impersonation.

Tell Congress: Require ICE to unmask and display clear identification Contact Congress today!

Masked federal agents grabbing people in public isn’t law enforcement; it’s intimidation. A democracy does not tolerate secret police. Congress must pass the #VISIBLEAct —require ICE to show faces, names, badges.

Demand transparency! Write Congress and end this shame. @dworkin.bsky.social

From MoveOn: “When #ICE agents operate in plain clothes and without visible ID, they create the perfect conditions for abuse. Since Trump took office, there have been disturbing reports of (men) impersonating ICE agents to kidnap, rob, & sexually assault immigrant women.” #VisibleAct

🚫 No more masks. No more fear. This week at #TyrannyTuesday, we showed up strong for the VISIBLE Act (S.2212), calling for ICE transparency: name, badge & agency ID. We’re out here every week fighting injustice. 💪 Big thanks to Sen. Rosen & all who showed up! #VisibleAct
@indivisiblennv.bsky.social

🚫 No more masks. No more fear. The VISIBLE Act (S.2212) demands ICE show name, badge & agency, just like any cop.

Thanks to @rosen.senate.gov for standing up for transparency, fairness & rights. 🙌

Shoutout to the 80+ at #TyrannyTuesday! #VisibleAct #ImmigrantJustice

Democratic leadership means showing up—and showing your badge. Wyden gets it. #VISIBLEAct #UnmaskICE #Oregonizers

If ICE won’t unmask themselves, Congress will. Wyden’s bill forces transparency. No more secret agents snatching people from school pickup lines. #VISIBLEAct #Oregonizers

Immigration agents demand tenant information from landlords, stirring questions and confusion Immigration authorities are pressuring landlords to share tenant information, including leases and IDs.

ICE is now subpoenaing landlords for tenant files—no judge, no warrant.

Meanwhile, Congress is pushing the VISIBLE Act so ICE can’t stay masked and unmarked.

It’s surveillance without accountability.

Senator Ron Wyden introduces bill to mandate visible ID for ICE officers It requires that immigration officers wear identification that includes their agency's name and either their last name or badge number.

If you’ve got nothing to hide, you should be wearing a name tag. The fact that we need a bill for that is bonkers. Wyden’s on it. #VISIBLEAct https://loom.ly/YX3iJDU

And finally, @slotkin.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov and @booker.senate.gov introduced the #VISIBLEAct which would require ice agents to identify themselves.
I’ve seen people talking about Padilla and Booker, but not Slotkin, so I wanted to make sure her name was in the convo.

Senators introduce a bill requiring immigration agents to show their faces Democratic sponsors call masking tactics a "clear attempt" to compound "fear and chaos—and to avoid accountability."

Senators Introduce a Bill Requiring Immigration Agents to Show Their Faces Sen. Alex Padilla is pushed out of the room by security personnel after he tried to ask a question to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at a news conference on June 12, 2025.David Crane/Orange County Register/AP Get your news from a source that’s not owned and controlled by oligarchs. Sign up for the free _Mother Jones Daily_. Senate Democrats are introducing legislation today that would force immigration officers around the country to wear clear identification while making public arrests. The VISIBLE Act, introduced by Sens. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.), would require officers to display their agency name or acronym as well as their personal name or badge number during enforcement actions. It would also prohibit them from wearing non-medical masks or balaclavas that hide their faces. “When federal immigration agents show up and pull someone off the street in plainclothes with their face obscured and no visible identification, it only escalates tensions and spreads fear while shielding federal agents from basic accountability,” Padilla said in a statement accompanying the bill. The legislation would apply to a broad group officers from the Department of Homeland Security, as well as those from other federal, state, or local departments that have been recruited to help with mass deportations. In late June, House Democrats introduced a similar bill, the No Secret Police Act, that applies only to DHS officers. (California lawmakers are pushing for legislation that would apply to federal, state, and local officers working in that state.) Padilla is a notable spokesperson for the VISIBLE Act. The son of Mexican immigrants, he has roots in Los Angeles, which has seen widespread immigration sweeps under the Trump administration. On Monday, federal agents in military green uniforms surrounded a park there on horseback and in armored vehicles, “a show of force akin to a Hollywood movie,” as the _Los Angeles Times_ put it. In June, Padilla was forcibly removed from a press conference held by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after he tried to ask her a question about immigration enforcement in the city; federal officers pushed him to the ground and handcuffed him, sparking public outcry. On Monday, Padilla and 13 Democratic senators sent a letter to Todd Lyons, acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), requesting information about the agency’s policy on masking and uniforms. “Storming courthouses, grabbing students off the street, raiding places of work, and sweeping through restaurants at prime dining hours are in and of themselves tactics clearly designed to engender fear and sow chaos in the population. Doing so in plainclothes, with no identification of their name or agency, while wearing a mask designed to obscure the agent’s face, represents a clear attempt to compound that fear and chaos—and to avoid accountability for agents’ actions,” they wrote. The lawmakers also cited safety concerns and noted that criminals have taken advantage of the chaos by impersonating federal immigration agents. “In one instance in Greensboro, North Carolina, several people were injured when armed individuals, falsely identifying themselves as ICE agents, pushed their way inside a home and robbed the family inside,” they wrote. The VISIBLE Act would include exceptions for officers who need to mask for their safety, such as to protect themselves from environmental hazards, or to officers working on covert or nonpublic operations. It would apply only to arrests for civil immigration offenses, but not criminal ones.
