A11196Requires certain police officers to wear and turn on body-worn cameras when accompanying an agent or officer of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement or of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Direction
Immigration enforcementstate federal cooperationAI label
Requires local police to wear and activate body cameras (and preserve footage) whenever accompanying ICE or CBP officers on immigration duties, increasing documentation and oversight of such joint activities.
Every police department in a city or county having a population of twenty thousand or more and that has instituted a body-worn camera program shall require officers of such department to wear and turn on such body-worn cameras in any instance when the officer accompanies or is in the presence of an agent or officer of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement or of U.S. Customs and Boarder Protection who is performing immigration-related duties.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill mandates body-camera use and recording preservation by local police specifically during interactions with ICE/CBP on immigration duties, which adds oversight to state-federal cooperation without expanding or restricting the underlying enforcement authority itself.
