Why the model tagged it this way: The bill substantively addresses immigration enforcement by imposing identification, face-covering, complaint, disciplinary, and reporting requirements specifically on covered immigration officers (including federal and state) during public immigration enforcement functions in Florida. It expands the scope of state oversight and accountability in immigration enforcement. The law-enforcement face-covering ban is general and does not specifically address immigration enforcement beyond the dedicated immigration section.
