This bill imposes a significant limitation on the Department of Homeland Security's ability to obligate funds for certain U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities. It prohibits the use of funds for the operation or contracting of biometric or other surveillance systems , including ICE's Intelligence Records System, and for the hiring of additional ICE personnel. This funding restriction remains in effect until the Secretary of Homeland Security submits a detailed report to Congress outlining a comprehensive policy for surveillance system use. The required policy must explicitly prohibit accessing or storing information collected from individuals exercising Constitutionally protected rights , and ensure First Amendment activities are not identified as "credible threat activity." It must establish clear rules for the use, access, storage, retention, and deletion of collected data, including protections against misuse, and provide mechanisms for individuals to review or contest their information. The report must also detail compliance with local privacy laws, officer training on facial recognition prohibitions, and mandate the deletion of certain collected information if the policy is not established within 30 days. Finally, the bill prohibits using funds to restrict individuals from recording or documenting immigration enforcement operations, provided such actions do not interfere.
