The Transparency in Federal Law Enforcement Activities Act establishes specific identification requirements for law enforcement officers during federal operations in New Jersey. Under this bill, federal law enforcement operations cannot occur in the state or in cooperation with state or local agencies unless all participating personnel display clearly visible identification that includes their name and agency of employment, and verbally state this information upon request from individuals being questioned, detained, or arrested. Additionally, state or local law enforcement officers are prohibited from assisting in operations where federal agents do not comply with these identification requirements.

The bill also outlines consequences for violations, including administrative disciplinary action for state or local officers who fail to adhere to the identification provisions. It grants individuals who are questioned, detained, or arrested in violation of these requirements the right to seek declaratory and injunctive relief in the Superior Court. Importantly, the bill clarifies that its provisions do not interfere with lawful federal actions but apply when state and local agencies cooperate with federal agents. The Attorney General is tasked with establishing necessary guidelines to implement the bill's provisions effectively.
