Appeals court rules California can’t require ICE to show visible ID
The panel said the state law impermissibly regulates federal officers and found the government is likely to succeed under the Supremacy Clause.
- On Wednesday, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals permanently barred California from enforcing the 'No Vigilantes Act,' which required U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to display identification while on duty.
- California enacted the statute following ICE raids, aiming to increase 'transparency and accountability' for federal agents. The Justice Department sued last year to block it, arguing the law unconstitutionally regulated federal operations.
- Circuit Judges Mark Bennett, Daniel Collins, and Jacqueline Nguyen unanimously ruled the law violates the Constitution's Supremacy Clause. They stated the U.S. government 'is certain to succeed' because states cannot regulate federal operations without congressional authorization.
- The court remanded the case to the District Court with instructions to enter a preliminary injunction, officially voiding California's enforcement efforts regarding the identification requirement.
- More than a dozen other States have pursued similar statutes to restrain federal deportation efforts. This ruling establishes that state laws directly regulating federal governmental conduct without congressional authorization are void, regardless of interference degree.
