Stop ICE Election Militarization Act
This bill prohibits Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers from conducting most immigration enforcement operations during the four weeks before federal elections. Exceptions only allow enforcement for specific criminal investigations involving a particular individual or to prevent imminent death or serious injury. It directly affects ICE operations by requiring stronger legal justification for actions near election periods. The law amends existing federal code to explicitly include immigration officers in election interference prohibitions.
