Requires immigration officers to display visible identification during public immigration enforcement.
The VISIBLE Act amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to mandate that immigration officers wear visible identification during public immigration enforcement activities. This identification must include the officer's agency name and either their last name or unique badge number, displayed in a manner that is legible from at least 25 feet away. The bill aims to enhance transparency and accountability in public immigration enforcement. Non-compliant officers face administrative discipline, and the Department of Homeland Security must report annually on compliance and enforcement actions.
