State Attorney General Letitia James on Tuesday led a national coalition of 21 attorneys general calling on Congress to pass legislation banning Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from wearing masks to conceal their identities and requiring them to “clearly identify themselves and their agency during civil enforcement actions.”
The Tuesday letter, which the attorneys general sent to all members of Congress, James and her peers raised concern with “ICE’s opaque conduct” in recent weeks, referring to the spike in immigration raids by masked agents, many of which have taken place in New York City.
