ICE Out of Our Faces Act
HR 7363, the ICE Out of Our Faces Act, prohibits U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers from using facial recognition, voice recognition, or other biometric surveillance technology for immigration enforcement. It directly affects CBP and ICE officers, including those deputized under Section 287(g), by banning the acquisition, possession, or use of such technology within the U.S. The bill requires immediate deletion of all existing biometric data collected by these agencies within 30 days of enactment and makes illegally obtained data inadmissible in court. Individuals harmed by violations can sue the federal government for damages, while officers violating the law face retraining, suspension, or termination.
