US SB2594

Immigration enforcement officers from CBP, ICE, and those deputized under 287(g) agreements must visibly display their last name, a unique identifier, their employing agency's name, and their face during public enforcement actions such as patrols, arrests, raids, and checkpoints

Exceptions to the identification requirement apply to officers engaged in undercover operations using assumed identities, planned tactical operations (hostage situations, terrorism response, active shooter incidents), or activities requiring face coverings under federal safety regulations

Federal agencies may reimburse covered employees up to 100% of costs for privacy-enhancing services (software or hardware to remove personal information online), starting in fiscal year 2026

Covered employees eligible for privacy reimbursements include immigration officers at heightened risk of threats or harassment, plus their spouses, children, parents, and other family members sharing the same residence

The bill preserves press freedom to investigate and report on officer misconduct, allows disclosure of information about officers on matters of public concern, and does not restrict information voluntarily published online by officers or their employers
