Requires the development and implementation of a tattoo policy by law enforcement agencies

Removed specific definitions for 'extremist tattoos,' 'indecent tattoos,' 'sexist tattoos,' and 'racist tattoos' that previously dictated what was banned.

Simplified the definition of 'tattoo' to include permanent marks made by ink, branding, or scarring, removing previous sub-categories.

Added a requirement for state law enforcement agencies to adopt and implement a written tattoo policy for all officers and applicants.

Added specific policy guidelines that must be included, such as allowing arm, leg, back, and torso tattoos while strictly prohibiting hand, face, and neck tattoos.

Changed the definition of 'state law enforcement agency' to remove references to specific criminal procedure law subdivisions regarding peace officer designations.

The definition of 'tattoo' was updated to explicitly include marks made by branding or scarring, ensuring these permanent markings are treated the same as ink tattoos under the ban.

The list of covered 'state law enforcement agencies' was expanded to include any agency employing individuals designated as peace officers under subdivision twenty-five of section 2.10 of the criminal procedure law.
