ACR 173 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges U.S. President and Congress to enact "Visible Identification Standards for Immigration-Based Law Enforcement Act of 2025."

This is a New Jersey Assembly Concurrent Resolution (ACR 173) urging the U.S. President and Congress to pass the "Visible Identification Standards for Immigration-Based Law Enforcement Act of 2025" (the "VISIBLE Act"). The resolution does not create new law but requests federal action to require immigration enforcement officers (e.g., from CBP or ICE) to visibly display their full name, agency, and badge number during public immigration enforcement activities, while banning non-medical face coverings unless operationally necessary. It cites rising impersonation cases as a key reason for this transparency measure, which would also mandate disciplinary actions for non-compliance and annual reporting to Congress. The resolution is procedural and symbolic, not a binding law.
