Part 11/17:
In another sign of shifting legal and political dynamics, California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a groundbreaking law banning the wearing of masks during law enforcement operations—calling it part of his broader effort to scrutinize and limit federal immigration enforcement tactics within the state.
The No Secret Police Act
Officially titled the No Secret Police Act, the law bars state and local officers from concealing their faces during operations, unless under specific circumstances such as riot gear, undercover assignments, or medical needs. Its primary target appears to be federal immigration agents, notably those with ICE, who often mask themselves to prevent doxxing or violent reprisals.
