Description

Federal officers guarded the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in South Portland on Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025, during ongoing protests. An Oregon bill would require every law enforcement agency operating in the state to have a public policy regarding facial coverings that “generally prohibits masking.”

As legal battles threaten the viability of state laws that prevent federal immigration agents from covering their faces, Oregon lawmakers on Tuesday took a major step toward entering the fray themselves.
