AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Combating Deceptive Immigration Enforcement Practices Act of 2025," amends section 287 of the Immigration and Nationality Act to prohibit immigration officers and agents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), specifically those from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), from wearing any clothing, accessories, or other items that display the word "police" while performing duties related to immigration laws. The purpose of this legislation appears to be preventing potential confusion or misrepresentation by immigration enforcement personnel who might be mistaken for local law enforcement officers. By restricting the use of the term "police" on their uniforms and equipment, the bill aims to ensure clarity about the specific role and authority of federal immigration officers and to avoid situations where individuals might be misled about the type of law enforcement official they are encountering.
