The Board of Supervisors took a first vote Tuesday to advance a proposed ordinance to prohibit law enforcement, including ICE agents, from wearing masks.

A second vote is still needed, which will be held on Dec. 9.

If approved, the ordinance will prohibit all law enforcement members, including local, state and federal, from wearing masks or disguises while interacting with the public while working in unincorporated L.A. County.

It will also require that all law enforcement members wear visible identification and agency affiliation.

    I fear ICE might bring smoke bombs to every situation specifically for this. I’m happy for the law in any case, i’m being a bit of a pessimist tbh.
