Combating Deceptive Immigration Enforcement Practices Act of 2025

# Combating Deceptive Immigration Enforcement Practices Act of 2025 (HR 3828) **What the Bill Would Do:** This bill aims to restrict certain tactics used by immigration enforcement agencies when interacting with the public. While the bill's specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, the title suggests it would prohibit what sponsors consider "deceptive" practices during immigration enforcement operations—potentially including things like misrepresenting an agent's identity, purpose, or authority during interactions with individuals or communities. **Who It Affects:** The bill would primarily affect immigration enforcement agencies (such as ICE), their officers, and immigrants or communities subject to enforcement actions.

It could also impact legal proceedings related to immigration cases, as restrictions on enforcement tactics might change how evidence is gathered or how interactions are conducted. **Current Status:** HR 3828 was introduced by Representative Nydia Velázquez (D-NY) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House. The bill has not advanced beyond the committee stage. *Note: For specific provisions and detailed language, you would need to review the full bill text on Congress.gov.*.
