ICE Out of Our Faces Act

The ICE Out of Our Faces Act prohibits U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers from using facial recognition, voice recognition, or other biometric surveillance technology for immigration enforcement. It directly affects ICE, CBP, and 287(g) deputized officers by banning their acquisition, possession, or use of such technology in the U.S. The bill requires immediate deletion of all existing biometric data collected by these officers within 30 days and makes evidence obtained in violation inadmissible in court. Violations could lead to lawsuits by affected individuals or state attorneys general, with possible damages, penalties, or injunctive relief.
