Rep. J. L. JOHNSON proposes the following amendment (LC-4764.WAB0001H):
Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 1, Section 23-1-260, by adding a subsection to read:
(K)(1) A federal immigration enforcement officer operating within the State may not wear a mask, face covering, or any garment, device, or material that obscures or conceals the officer's face.(2) While conducting any enforcement action within this State, a federal immigration enforcement officer shall:
(a) wear badge or insignia and clothing or a uniform that clearly and conspicuously identifies the officer as a federal immigration enforcement officer; and
(b) wear and activate a body-worn camera. The body-worn camera must be activated at the initiation of any encounter with a member of the public related to enforcement activity and remain activated until the conclusion of the encounter. The use, retention, and disclosure of recordings must comply, to the extent practicable, with the standards set forth in Section 23-1-240. For purposes of this section, "body-worn camera" has the same meaning as provided in Section 23-1-240.
