HR 3172 United States House · 119th Congress

To amend section 287 of the Immigration and Nationality Act with respect to certain uniform requirements for United States immigration officers.

This bill requires U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and other deputized immigration officers to visibly identify themselves during enforcement actions. Specifically, it mandates that officers display a 12-inch by 6-inch agency identifier on their uniform front or back, ensuring it remains unobscured by armor or accessories. The requirement applies during all "time of action" activities, such as patrols, raids, arrests, or warrant service. The bill directly affects immigration enforcement personnel by standardizing their visible identification during interactions with the public.
