Mandate that ICE agents show their face and identification!
%20(35).png)
Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) agents are abducting people off the street, forcing their way into schools, churches, and hospitals, and terrorizing communities. And they are doing it in plain clothes and without identification.
These are not lawful arrests. This is state-sanctioned abduction. And it is dangerous.
Without visible badges and names, people have no way to confirm if they are interacting with legitimate government officials—leaving everyone vulnerable to chaos, confusion, and danger caused by bad actors impersonating law enforcement.
Add your name to the petition demanding Congress pass legislation requiring all immigration agents to clearly display their agency and name or badge number—just like other local law enforcement are required to do.
Why is this important?
ICE agents—without identification—are detaining people in plain clothes and wearing masks—stoking widespread fear, confusion, and distrust. This is not normal. And it’s not only cowardly, it’s dangerous.
Alarming news reports have already surfaced of bad actors impersonating ICE across the country—kidnapping, assaulting, and scamming people. When ICE agents operate in plain clothes and without visible ID, it creates the perfect cover for abuse. The increased anonymity of ICE agents increases this kind of danger and recklessly endangers everyone.
That’s why members of Congress have introduced legislation, the VISIBLE Act, requiring immigration enforcement officers to display clearly legible identification, prohibiting nonmedical face coverings, and establishing disciplinary procedures for violations.
The Trump administration is giving ICE free rein to terrorize communities anonymously, violating our fundamental rights and putting the entire country at risk. It’s the responsibility of Congress to make sure federal agencies operate with transparency, and we need our representatives to know we expect them to make this priority by passing legislation like the VISIBLE Act to hold ICE accountable.
