HR 4667 United States House · 119th Congress

VISIBLE Act

HR 4667, the VISIBLE Act, requires U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and other authorized immigration officers to visibly display their agency name and either their last name or unique badge number during all public immigration enforcement activities (such as stops, arrests, raids, or checkpoints). This identification must be clearly legible from 25 feet away on outer clothing, not obscured by gear, and officers cannot wear face coverings that hide their face during public interactions unless for covert operations or hazardous conditions. The bill mandates DHS to discipline non-compliant officers and submit annual reports to Congress detailing enforcement activities, violations, and disciplinary actions. It also directs DHS’s Civil Rights Office to investigate public complaints about noncompliance.
