This bill establishes a prohibition against law enforcement officers wearing masks or disguises while interacting with the public during the performance of their official duties. The bill defines a law enforcement officer as a member of any federal, state, county, or municipal law enforcement agency empowered to enforce laws. However, there are exceptions to this prohibition for officers engaged in undercover assignments, those wearing protective shields that do not conceal their faces, officers using medical-grade masks or N95 respirators with a physician's statement, and those wearing masks for protection against smoke during a State of Emergency.

Violations of this bill would result in the officer being charged with a disorderly persons offense, which carries penalties of a fine ranging from $500 to $1,000, up to six months of imprisonment, or both. The bill aims to enhance transparency and accountability in law enforcement interactions with the public by ensuring that officers are identifiable during their official duties.
