Urges U.S. President and Congress to enact "Visible Identification Standards for Immigration-Based Law Enforcement Act of 2025."
SCR 139 is a New Jersey Senate resolution urging the U.S. President and Congress to pass the federal "Visible Identification Standards for Immigration-Based Law Enforcement Act of 2025" (the "VISIBLE Act"). The resolution references the proposed federal law, which would require immigration officers (including U.S. Customs and Border Protection and ICE personnel) to display visible identification during public enforcement actions - showing their agency name/initials plus last name or badge number - and prohibit non-medical face coverings unless for covert operations or environmental hazards. It aims to prevent impersonation of agents, increase accountability, and align with New Jersey's values of transparency. As a concurrent resolution, SCR 139 itself has no legal force but formally requests federal action on this specific policy.
