Plain Language Summary

# No Secret Police Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** The No Secret Police Act of 2025 aims to restrict the federal government's ability to establish or operate secret police forces or similar covert law enforcement units. While the bill's specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, the general intent appears to be preventing the creation of undisclosed federal police agencies that would operate without public oversight or accountability. **Who It Affects:** This bill would primarily affect federal law enforcement agencies and government operations. It could impact how existing federal agencies like the FBI, Secret Service, and Department of Homeland Security organize their internal security operations, and would prevent new secret law enforcement units from being created. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee (HR 4176, 119th Congress), meaning it has been introduced but hasn't advanced to a full floor vote yet.

It was sponsored by Representative Daniel S. Goldman, a Democrat from New York's 10th district. *Note: Detailed provisions aren't available in the provided information. For specific legislative language and current committee actions, consult Congress.gov.*.
