## Summary

**Transparency and accountability** in immigration enforcement. This resolution would urge DHS, ICE, and CBP to adopt six non-binding reforms focused on body cameras, visible identification, civilian oversight, de-escalation training, and increased Department of Justice civil-rights oversight to protect constitutional protections for people encountered in enforcement operations. - Families and communities: Interactions with ICE and CBP would be recorded and preserved for oversight and investigations, which could strengthen documentation of raids, stops, and concerns about access to counsel. - Enforcement personnel: ICE and CBP officers would be required to wear body cameras and visibly display name, badge number, and agency, while masks or face coverings would be banned except when there is an immediate threat to officer safety. - Civilian oversight and advocates: The resolution would call for independent civilian oversight boards that can receive complaints, review actions, and recommend discipline or policy changes. - Training and legal oversight: It would recommend mandatory de-escalation training for officers and for the Department of Justice to oversee ICE to bolster civil-rights enforcement.
